To add some clarity to a perhaps less than helpful post which amounts to "read the instructions" I think you'll find that whiteline has done the work of figuring this out for you.
You are correct in your understanding of how to get negative camber.
That tabbed washer indicates where the cam on the bolt is so that you turn the bolt with the tab until it is pointing as in the diagram. When the tab points towards the strut you are adding negative camber and when the tab points towards the hub you are adding positive camber.
The tab indicates 90 degrees to the position of the cam on the eccentric bolt.
Camber bolts work by fitting a smaller diameter bolt into the bolthole (and should be a higher specification bolt as a result to take the same loads with less metal). There is a cam shaped onto one side of the bolt. As this is turned in the round bolthole the bolt is pushed off center which pushes the bolthole in the hub off centre relative to the bolthole in the strut body.
The exact placement of the eccentric cam determines by how much the bolthole in the top mount of the hub moves. You want the cam facing out towards the hub to push the hub bolthole inwards to give negative camber. The washer tab is only there to indicate how far you have turned the cam.
