Operation Manual

11.7. Privacy Mask Settings

The Privacy Mask function aims to avoid any intrusive monitoring. When setting a mask, it is suggested to set it at

least twice bigger (height and width) than the masked object. The Dome Camera will assume the center of the

selected view as a starting point. Therefore, please keep the target object/region positioned in the center of the

scene. Refer to the following descriptions for setting a privacy mask.

NOTE: The Image Flip function (see section 11.10. Camera — Miscellaneous Setups 1) and the Image Inverse

function (see section 11.11. Camera — Miscellaneous Setups 2) will be disabled automatically when the Privacy

Mask function is enabled.
