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.
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.
4. Set up the mask area. Up to four areas can be set.
