Establishing Privacy Zones
Privacy Zones are “masked” sections of the dome’s viewing area. These masks prevent operators of
the surveillance system who do not have access to the dome password from viewing these designated
zones. Each zone has four sides, and the zones may overlap to form irregular shapes. The Privacy
Zones move in relation to the dome pan/tilt position. In addition, the apparent size of the Privacy
Zone adjusts automatically as the zoom level is adjusted. Up to eight Privacy Zones may be
established for a dome.
Privacy Zones are useful for high security areas. For example, you might establish a Privacy Zone
around a safe’s combination. However, you could view people approaching or opening the safe.
When Privacy Zones are active, the dome's firmware automatically disables text transparency. For
additional information about text appearance, see Chapter 5.
In addition, the appearance of the configuration menus changes slightly when Privacy Zones are
active. Both the first and last lines of the menus will appear in enlarged text when Privacy Zones are
active. The menus change to one-sized text if Privacy Zones are hidden or deleted.
To program Privacy Zones, select Privacy Zones from the Alarms/Areas/Home/Presets/ PZ
screen. The following screen appears:
