2. Select the privacy mask number to apply to the scene.
3. The preview window displays a gray rectangle in the scene.
4. Click the Enabled check box to activate the privacy mask.
5. The privacy mask in the preview window changes to orange to indicate that the mask will
appear in the video streams on the LIVE page.
6. Place the cursor inside the privacy mask area in the preview window; then click and drag
to move the privacy mask.
7. Place the cursor on a corner or on a vertex of the mask rectangle; then click and drag to
expand or shrink the privacy mask area.
8. Click Set to save the privacy mask size and position.
An image window displays the privacy mask.
9. To hide an individual mask, select the mask number and clear the Enabled check box.
10. To hide all masks from an image view, click the Disable Masks check box.
Note: If you choose to hide all masks, you must enable each individual mask to show the
mask in the scene.

Notice!

object as the camera zooms in and out. Click the Zoom threshold box.
Draw the mask at 50% optical zoom or less for improved masking performance.
