Adding a Channel:

Adding a new camera as a channel can be accomplished with a simple drag and
drop procedure. After you have inserted the camera from the Camera
Configuration
screen in the Function Menu, the channel number (shown below)
will change from grayed out to blue (see page 55 to Insert a camera):

1. Click on the number of the camera that was inserted previously:
2. Hold the mouse button down and drag the channel number onto a
droppable video area. The video from the new camera will be displayed
in this video display and the light above the camera number changes
from off to green.
