AXIS M3014 - Video

View Area

When setting up a view area it is recommended that video stream resolution be the same size as or smaller than the view area
size. Setting the video stream resolution larger than the view area size implies digitally scaled up video after sensor capture,
requiring more bandwidth without adding image information.
Choose an Aspect ratio, and a Video stream resolution from the drop-down list. Check Enable PTZ to enable digital PTZ in
the view area
The first time an area is created it covers the whole overview image. With the help of your mouse size and position the box
over the desired area of the overview image.

Overlay Image

An overlay image is a static image superimposed over the video image. An overlay can be used to provide extra information, or
to mask a part of the video image. To use an overlay image in the AXIS M3014 Network Camera, it must be selected from the
drop-down list of available images. The overlay (a logo, for example) is then displayed in the video image.
To use your own image, first upload it to the AXIS M3014 Network Camera. To upload enter the name of the file in the field
provided, or click the Browse button, locate and click the Upload button.
Image Overlay Placement - To place the overlay image at specific coordinates in the live view image, check Include overlay
image at the coordinates and enter the X and Y coordinates.
Click View to view the overlay image in the video stream. Once satisfied, click Save.
Note: Using a large overlay may negatively affect the frame rate.
