Screen 24: Windows Blanking
The camera can be used to define up to eight privacy zones which blank out certain areas of the screen concealing them
from the operator’s sight.
A privacy zone appears as a grey or black rectangle associated to a certain pan, tilt and zoom position of a camera. This
association is used to move, expand and compress the rectangle according to how the pan, tilt or zoom settings are
changed.
Table 22
The two blanking bands (upper & lower) may coexist at the same time.
The two blanking bands (upper & lower) cannot coexist at the same time in presence of a privacy zone.
A band will automatically be removed if both bands are enabled and a privacy zone is activated.
If an attempt to activate a blanking band is attempted with a privacy zone active, the privacy zone will remain
active to the detriment of the blank.
