Overlay image requirements:
Image Formats
• Windows 24-bit BMP (full color)
• Windows 4-bit BMP (16 colors)
Overlay image limitations:
• The maximum overlay image size supported by the AXIS 241QA/AXIS 241SA is
the same as the maximum image resolution. See the Technical Specifications, on
page 66.
• When a text overlay is also used, this reduces the amount of space available to
the overlay image. To keep the text readable at lower resolutions, the text overlay
occupies proportionally more of the image at lower resolutions.
• If the overlay is initially positioned so that part of it is outside the video image, it
is relocated so that it appears over the video image. It is always the entire image
that is displayed.
