Manually associating video cameras

Video cameras are automatically assigned to points according to the coverage
area defined for the camera points allocated on the map. However, a manual
assignment can replace or be added to the automatic association.
Note: This functionality is not available for the MT8001 Management Terminal.
First, select the point node in the tree. Then, in the Camera Extensor tab you can
see the camera associations and manually add one or more cameras.
