Privacy mask
You can define an area on screen to remain hidden from view and recording. For
example, you can choose to block the view of a camera when overlooking residential
premises. This hidden area is referred to as privacy masking. Privacy masking cannot
be viewed in live view or recorded mode, and appears as a black area on the video
image.
Up to four privacy masks can be defined for one analog camera. For IP cameras, the
number of privacy masks is determined by the number supported by the camera.
To setup a privacy mask:
1. From the menu toolbar, click
Camera Setup
>
Privacy Mask
.
2. Select the camera for which to set up privacy masking.
3. Check the
Enable Privacy Mask
box to enable the feature.
