AXIS 210/210A/211/211A - Video & Image settings
Text Overlay Settings
Include date, time and/or text of your choice to be viewed on the image. The color of the
text may be set to white or black, while background color may be set to white, black,
transparent or semitransparent. The position of the text is set either to the top or the
bottom of the image.
Video Stream
Define the maximum video stream time per session in seconds, minutes or hours. When
the set time has expired, a new stream can be started by refreshing the page in the Web
browser. For unlimited video stream time, set this value to 0. This setting is only applicable
to Motion JPEG.
The frame rate allowed to each viewer can also be limited, to avoid bandwidth problems
on the network.
Test
To preview the image before saving, click Test. Note that the preview image will be in
JPEG format, even though the settings are valid both for Motion JPEG and MPEG-4.

Overlay/Mask Type
When using an image overlay,
select from the following
options the type to use:
• Uploaded image as overlay -
usually used to provide extra
information in the video
image.
• Configurable areas as pri-
vacy masks - up to 3 areas
are used to conceal parts of
the video image.
The difference between an
overlay and a privacy mask is that a privacy mask cannot be bypassed by accessing the
video stream with the help of the AXIS HTTP API, whereas an overlay can.
Selecting the overlay/mask type will display further settings available for the selected type.
See the online help for further information.
