Setting A Privacy Zone; Deleting A Privacy Zone; Setting A Removable Privacy Zone For Specific Users - Avigilon H6A Series User Manual

Setting a Privacy Zone

1. To add a privacy zone, click Add. A privacy zone box is added to the video image.
2. To define the privacy zone area, perform any of the following:
a. Drag any side or corner of the box to resize the privacy zone. Privacy zones can only be
rectangular in shape. Multiple privacy zones can be used to obscure other shapes.
b. Click inside the box and drag to move the privacy zone.
3. To set the privacy zone as removable:
a. Click the Enable checkbox in the Removable Blur settings.
b. Use the Blurriness slider to define amount of blur in the privacy zones. All Blurriness settings
will make the video from that zone completely obscured.
Note: Removable privacy zones have diagonal lines in them when configuring them on
the Privacy Zones page to help tell them apart from regular privacy zones. When
viewed in the Live View page or an ACC client, the zone will appear as a blurred gray
rectangle.
4. Click Apply to save the privacy zone settings.

Deleting a Privacy Zone

Click the X at the top-right corner of the gray box to delete the privacy zone.

Setting a Removable Privacy Zone for Specific Users

This is only supported when connecting the camera to an ACC system. Removable privacy zones are only
applied to the secondary and tertiary video streams so that ACC group and privilege settings can be used to
define which users can view the primary stream without the privacy zones and which users can only view the
streams with the blurred privacy zones.
Note: The removable privacy zones will be applied to the secondary and tertiary video streams for
any VMS the camera is connected to. Other VMS systems may have similar user privilege settings
that can be used as a similar method to define which stream users can view. Check your VMS
documentation for how to configure which streams users have access to view.
The ACC View high-resolution images group privilege gives users in that group access to the primary high-
resolution stream of the cameras. This primary high-resolution stream will not have the removable privacy
zones applied to it. This privilege should only be granted to administrators or similar users that might have a
need to view the private areas of the image. General operators and other ACC users that don't have the View
high-resolution images privilege will always have the removable privacy zones applied. See your ACC
documentation for more information on setting up group privileges.
