OSDI Zones

On-Screen Direction Indicator (OSDI) zones can be included in the overlay text (see Overlay on page 21) to aid the user to navigate the Axis product. Each OSDI zone is set up with coordinates and a descriptive name.

OSDI zones are set up under PTZ > OSDI Zones. The Axis product uses the coordinates of the center of the view to set the lower left and upper right zone areas. First navigate to where you would like the lowermost left point of the OSDI zone to be located. Click Get to set the coordinates. Proceed to where the upper right point of zone should be located and click Get. Give the zone a descriptive name and click OK.

To include the name of the OSDI zone in the overlay text, go to Video < Video Stream < Overlay Settings. Check the Include text box and enter the modifier #L in the field. For more information about modifiers, see File Naming & Date/Time Formats in

the online help .

Limits

Define the pan, tilt, zoom and focus limits for the Axis product. Movements to the left and right, up and down, can be restricted to narrow the area under surveillance.

Near focus limit is used to prevent the camera from autofocusing on objects close to the camera. This way, the camera can ignore objects such as overhead wires, streetlights, or other cameras placed close to the camera.

To make the camera focus on the areas of interest, set the near focus limit to a value that is greater than the distance at which the uninteresting objects tend to appear. See illustration below where x is the near focus limit value.
