AXIS 212 PTZ/-V - Video and Image settings

The frame rate allowed to each viewer can also be limited, to reduce bandwidth usage. To allow the highest available frame

rate, select the Unlimited radio button.

For a preview of the image before saving, click Test. When satisfied with the settings, click Save. Please note that the preview

image will be in JPEG format, even though the settings are valid both for Motion JPEG and MPEG-4.

Overlay Image

An overlay image is an image included in the video image. Follow these instructions to upload and use an overlay image:

1. Go to Setup > Video & Image > Overlay Image in your web interface.

2. To upload the image to AXIS 212 PTZ/-V, click the Browse button and locate it on your computer or server.

3. Click the Upload button and follow the on-screen instructions.

4. The image is now available in the Use overlay image drop-down list.

5. Click Save.

6. Go to Setup > Video & Image and modify the parameters under Overlay Settings.

Overlay image requirements:

• The maximum overlay image size supported by AXIS 212 PTZ/-V is the same as the maximum image resolution. See

Technical Specifications, on page 47.

• When a text overlay is also used, this reduces the amount of space available to the overlay image. To keep the text

readable at lower resolutions, the text overlay occupies proportionally more and more space, i.e., 16 pixels in height at

640x480, 32 pixels at 320x240 and 64 pixels at 160x120.

• If the overlay is initially positioned so that part of it is outside the video image, it will be relocated so that it appears

over the video image, i.e. the entire image is always displayed.

Please see the online help for more information.

Advanced

Camera - Lighting Conditions

To optimize the lighting settings according to your requirements, modify the following settings:

• Color level - Select color or B/W

• Brightness - This can be adjusted in the range 0-100

• Sharpness - Controls the amount of sharpening applied to the image

• Exposure control - This setting is used to adapt to the amount/type of light being used

• Exposure zones - This setting determines which part of the image will be used to calculate the exposure. The Auto set-

ting can be used in many situations, but for particular requirements, select one of the other predefined areas.

White balance

This is used to always try to make the colors in the image appear the same, to compensate for the different colors present in

different light sources.

AXIS 212 PTZ/-V can be set to automatically identify the light source used and compensate for its color. Alternatively, the type

of light source can be set manually.

From the drop-down list, select the white balance setting suitable for the lighting used for your camera.

For more information please refer to the online help .
