Privacy Mask

A privacy mask is an area of solid color that prohibits users from viewing parts of the monitored area. Privacy masks cannot be
bypassed via the VAPIX® Application Programming Interface (API).
The Privacy Mask List (Video & Audio > Privacy Mask) shows all the masks that are currently configured in the Axis product and
indicates if they are enabled.
You can add a new mask, re-size the mask with the mouse, choose a color for the mask, and give the mask a name.
For more information, see the online help
Important
Adding many privacy masks may affect the product's performance.

Audio Settings

The audio functionality for each video stream is enabled under Video & Audio > Video Stream > Audio.
Audio Modes
The Axis product supports the following audio modes:
Full duplex - Simultaneous two-way audio allowing the Axis product to transmit and receive audio at the same time. There is no
echo cancellation; if feedback loops appear, try moving the microphone or the speaker.
Half-duplex - Audio can be transmitted to and from the Axis product but only in one direction at a time. To transmit audio using the
Live View page, use the Talk and Listen buttons, see AMC Audio Controls, on page 12.
Simplex — speaker only - Audio is transmitted from a client to the Axis product and can be played by a speaker connected
to the product. To transmit audio using the Live View page, the Talk and Microphone buttons must both be active, see AMC
Audio Controls, on page 12.
Simplex — microphone only - Audio captured by the product microphone is transmitted from the Axis product to one or more clients.
To set the audio mode, go to Video & Audio > Audio Settings and select the desired mode from the Audio mode drop-down list.
