OSD/Privacy Mask
The section OSD / Privacy Mask allows user to do one of the two on-video
operations:
NOTE: Privacy Mask is not available on zoom and PT(Z) cameras under the E and B camera series.
1. Add text to the upper or lower left corner of the video. This function is called Text Overlay or
On-Screen Display (OSD). It is possible to display the camera name, date and time, IP address or any
custom text as Text Overlay. The text is kept as small as possible and is not resizable. The text can
be read normally when the video is enlarged on the display to 1:1 ratio. The purpose of having the
text so small is to provide sufficient legal evidence while blocking the smallest possible area of the
video to avoid valuable video evidence being blocked by text overlay. The text will be embedded into
video and cannot be removed later upon playback or export.
2. Cover up some sensitive areas of the video that should not be captured by the camera, such as
manager’s computer screen or bathroom entrance. This function is called Privacy Mask. It is possible
to configure several independent regions for masking. Microsoft Internet Explorer browser is
required to configure the Privacy Mask. The privacy masks will be embedded into video and cannot
be removed later upon playback or export.
Text Overlay (OSD) Setup
It is possible to define up to 4 regions of text. If more than 1 region of text is enabled and positioned in
the same location, then the texts will appear one below another, row by row.
In the example above, one region of text was enabled with blue color and 50% transparency, located at
left lower corner and containing the text of ’’Office View“ together with current date. The date would be
automatically changing every day, according to camera’s date and time settings. The result of the
example configuration would look like this (Live View page, 1:1 scale):
Below is the list of characters with special meaning that can be used in the text field:
