The boundary points on the Privacy Zone are selected by pressing Zoom. Once a boundary
point is selected, the arrows "blink" until the target area is moved to a valid area. Once the
target moves to a valid area, the arrows stop blinking. If you move the target more than 90-
degrees from a selected point, the arrows begin to blink again, indicating that the boundary is
too large.
If you attempt to establish a boundary point while the arrows are blinking you will receive an
error message: Zone is Too Small or Zone is Too Large. If this happens, you must start
programming from the beginning. Pressing Focus Far returns you to the Privacy Zone
programming screen.
If you attempt to program more than eight Privacy Zones, the following message appears:
Pressing Focus Far returns to the Program Privacy Zones screen. To program a new
zone, you must delete at least one of the eight existing Privacy Zones. See Removing or
Hiding Privacy Zones on page 4-16.

Areas of the Privacy Zone may be exposed during rapid pan / tilt movements of the dome. To
