Capture modes
Capture mode defines the maximum frame rate available in the Axis product. Depending on which capture mode you select, you
may not be able to use WDR.
Which capture mode to choose depends on the requirements of frame rate and resolution for the specific surveillance setup. For
specifications about available capture modes, see the product’s datasheet at
Privacy masks
A privacy mask is a user-defined area that covers a part of the monitored area. In the video stream, privacy masks appear either as
blocks of solid color or with a mosaic pattern.
You’ll see the privacy mask on all snapshots, recorded video, and live streams.
You can use the VAPIX® application programming interface (API) to turn off the privacy masks.
Important
If you use multiple privacy masks it may affect the product’s performance.
Overlays
Overlays are superimposed over the video stream. They are used to provide extra information during recordings, such as a timestamp,
or during product installation and configuration. You can add either text or an image.
The video streaming indicator is another type of overlay. It shows you that the live view video stream is live.
Pan, tilt, and zoom (PTZ)
Guard tours
A guard tour displays the video stream from different preset positions either in a predetermined or random order, and for configurable
periods of time. Once started, a guard tour continues to run until stopped, even when there are no clients (web browsers) viewing the
images.
