5.3 MASK FIELD
The Mask Field lets you block a specific portion of a channel you do not want recorded or
shown on the display screen. This can be useful if you need to conceal a sensitive area being
captured by the installed camera.
To use the mask field:
STEP 1. From the Record menu, click
MASK FIELD SETUP. The Mask
Field menu opens.
STEP 2. Choose a channel you wish to
apply the Mask Field.
STEP 3. Select ON from the SWITCH
drop-down menu.
STEP 4. Click SETUP. The Mask menu
will be replaced by the full-screen
camera view of the desired channel.
STEP 5. Using the mouse, click and drag
the cursor over the area you want to
conceal. A single click will produce a
small black square.
STEP 6. Right-click anywhere on the
screen to return to the Mask Field
menu.
STEP 7. Click APPLY. Click CLOSE in
the confirmation window.
STEP 8. Click EXIT in all menus until all
windows are closed.
