• Perform switch settings before turning the unit on.
• Cameras whose camera address setting switches are set to AUTO
cannot coexist with cameras whose switches are set to 1 to 7.
• Manually setting multiple cameras to the same address will not allow
you to control multiple cameras from a single controller simultaneously.
