MIC412TI and MIC412TF Camera | Installation and Operation Manual AAA EN | 33 Bosch Security Systems Issue 8 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.
Privacy Controls
Masks On / Off
This is an override setting to turn masks completely On or Off. This will not clea r
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
