Grid size |
The selected grid size determines the density of the grid, regardless whether the grid is visible in the preview or not. Select between the values 8×8, 16×16, 32×32 or 64×64. |
Clear |
Clears all privacy masks you have specified. |
Show grid |
Select the Show grid check box to make the grid visible. |
Show privacy masks |
When you select the Show privacy masks check box (default), permanent privacy masks appear in purple in the preview and liftable privacy masks in green. Milestone recommends that you keep the Show privacy masks box selected so that you and your colleagues can see the current privacy protection configuration. |
Pen size |
Use the Pen size slider to indicate the size of the selections you wish to make when you click and drag the grid to select regions. Default is set to small, which is equivalent to one square in the grid. |
Permanent mask |
Appears in purple in the preview on this tab and on the Motion tab. Permanent privacy masks are always visible in XProtect Smart Client and cannot be lifted. Can be used to cover areas of the video that never requires surveillance, like public areas, where surveillance is not allowed. Motion detection is excluded from permanent masks. You specify the coverage of privacy masks as either solid or some level of blurred. The coverage settings apply to both live and recorded video. |
Liftable mask |
Appears in green in the preview on this tab. Liftable privacy masks can be lifted in XProtect Smart Client by users with sufficient user permissions. By default, the privacy masks are lifted for 30 minutes, or until the user apply them again. Be aware that the privacy masks are lifted on video from all the cameras that the user has access to. If the XProtect Smart Client user does not have the permission to lift privacy masks, the system asks for a user with permission to authorize the lift. You specify the coverage of privacy masks as either solid or a level of blurred. The coverage settings apply to both live and recorded video. |
Blurring |
Use the slider to select the blurring level of the privacy masks in the clients or set the coverage to solid. By default, the coverage of areas with permanent privacy masks are solid (nontransparent). By default, liftable privacy masks are medium blurred. You can inform the client users about the appearance of permanent and liftable privacy masks, so they are able to distinguish. |
