Privacy Mask
PTZ&IMAGE > Privacy Mask
The Privacy Mask function aims to avoid any intrusive monitoring. When setting a mask, it is
advised to set the size at least twice higher and wider than the masked object. The camera
will adopt the centre of the selected view as the starting point. Therefore, keep the target
object / region positioned in the centre of the scene.
Note: When a privacy mask has been set and enabled, the Flip function on the Camera -
Misc1 page is disabled.
The HSD820v2H3-E supports up to 16 privacy masks.
