Pelco ESPRIT ES30C - Manual (Page 42)

42 C309M-J (9/04)
The Esprit system features onscreen programmable zone blanking. This feature lets you define any zone as blanked for video (viewing/
recording).
Zones can be programmed to overlap each other, although this is not recommended. If you program two zones to overlap, the title of the
zone with the highest priority (zone 8 is the highest, zone 1 is the lowest) will be displayed on the monitor. This rule also applies to
blanked zones that overlap. The blanking status of the zone with the highest priority will determine if the area is blanked or not. Example:
Zone 1 is blanked but a portion of the zone overlaps zone 8 which is not blanked. The overlapped portion of zone 1 will be displayed on the
monitor with the zone 8 label.
There are two video zone blank settings:
On – Enables video blanking.
Off – Disables video blanking.
To change the video blank zone setting:
1. Program preset 95 (28). The main menu appears.
2. Position the cursor (>) beside Other.
3. Press the Iris Open button to enter the Other menu.
4. Position the cursor (>) beside Zone Blank.
5. Press the Iris Open button to enter the Zone Blank menu.
6. Position the cursor (>) beside the number of the zone for which you want to set the blank option.
7. Press the Iris Open button. The cursor moves to the right, beside the word On or Off.
8. Move the joystick up or down to toggle between the words On and Off.
9. SELECT – Press the Iris Open button on your keyboard to select your choice.
CANCEL – Press the Iris Close button if you do not want to change the setting.
