‘Special’ Menu

CAM TITLE: You can give your camera a name, if you’d like to. There’s no requirement to do so, but it can make identifying which video feed you’re viewing on a multiple camera setup easy to determine at a glance. It’s also kind of nice to feel like the camera is your friend.

MOTION: The camera is able to detect motion, and to highlight the areas where motion is detected. For more information, see page 12.

PRIVACY: You can apply a privacy mask to any area of the screen you choose. Selecting this option will open the PRIVACY sub-menu where you’ll be able to configure how and where the privacy mask will be applied.

Remember , if you apply a privacy mask in-camera and then record the images, the images will always have the privacy mask superimposed – you won’t be able to remove it! A better option is to apply a privacy setting on your DVR (if your DVR supports it).

The Swann DVR-2600 series and the DVR-2550 series support privacy masking.
