Overlay Image; Privacy Mask - Axis M1103 User Manual

Overlay Image

An overlay image is a static image superimposed over the video image. The overlay image can be used to provide extra
information, or to mask a part of the video image. See the online help for supported image formats and sizes.
To use your own image, e.g. a logo, it must first be upload to network camera. Click Browse and locate the image file on the
computer. Click Upload. When uploaded, the file can be selected in the Use overlay image drop-down list.
To place the overlay image at specific coordinates in the live view image, the box Include overlay image at coordinates under
Video > Video Stream > Image must be selected, see Overlay Settings, on page 15.
Once satisfied, click Save.
