MIC412TI and MIC412TF Camera Installation and Operation Manual

Privacy and Captions

The Privacy and Captions tab allows the user to define and set the privacy mask function if the optional privacy card is fitted; this is not applicable to the MIC400 as the privacy card cannot be used with the thermal imager.

Masks On / Off

This is an override setting to turn masks completely On or Off. This will not clear each individual masks settings, so when Off is sent they will disappear and then re-appear with On, in the same positions.

Crosshair On / Off

This setting makes a crosshair appear on the video display centered on the middle of the video. This can then be used to set individual mask pixels with the appropriate command from below.

Show / Clear Mask Style

This setting provides a preview of the current mask style. This will only work if the Crosshair is turned On. It will show a small privacy block to the right of the crosshair center. If nothing appears, the mask may be clear, so use the Set Mask Style to change to a visible setting. Once the required style has been selected; press Clear Mask Style and Crosshair Off, to return to the normal state.

Mask / Clear Whole Screen

These functions will add or remove a privacy mask the size of the entire current view. Moving the MIC in Pan or Tilt should then indicate the zone clearly. This would most commonly be used in conjunction with zoom where a window can be made full frame and then the whole thing masked as apposed to the method below which may take significantly longer.

Mask / Clear Pixel

This is a more accurate way of creating privacy masks one pixel at a time. The Pixel is created at the center of the image, or where the crosshair points if it is visible.

Set Crosshair

This will create a pixel sized mask as with the function above, and will also bring up the crosshair. Press again to remove the crosshair or use Crosshair Off
