In the Example of numbering box the equipment name example according to the specified pattern is displayed.

 

       Numbering order

 

Equipment numbering order on layouts is adjusted on the panel.

 

Common number - number in equipment number increasing order all over the project. Camera numbers are displayed in the Camera list box and the Table of cameras window in the Number column.

 

Number on layouts - number in camera/device/cable number increasing order separately on each layout.

 

From top to down  - number cameras/devices/cables from top to down according to their position on layouts.

 

From left to right  - number cameras/devices/cables from left to right according to their position on layouts.

 

Step - numbering step on layouts when numbering from top to down and from left to right (meters or foots).
