Overview

From time to time an IVS customer may have the need to use one of their VALT Rooms without the capacity to view live or record. Or, they may run sessions that contain sensitive information from time to time, which they do not captured in a recording. In this case, we can configure cameras for Privacy Mode, which blankets the screen with a black video overlay and omits all audio from the stream.


The Privacy Switch is a customizable solution for placing VALT cameras in Privacy Mode - a physical button to engage this option. The instructions below will outline how to configure a privacy switch that will stay illuminated while the switch is in the OFF position. Flipping the switch to the ON position will extinguish the light and engage privacy mode. The switch and LED are independent and the behavior can be customized. See the variations section in the Manual Privacy Rules article for more information.

These instructions are written for use with a camera with 4 I/O ports (6 pin phoenix connector). Port 1 and 2 (pins 3 and 4) are reserved for use with the VALT Recording Start/Stop button.

Compatible Cameras and Wire Diagrams

The privacy switch should be usable with any AXIS camera with at least one free input and one free output. The camera must be running firmware version 5.50 or higher.

Click on the Axis-camerasmall.png icon to see the diagram.

* These cameras can only be used with a single ancillary device (ie: Button or privacy switch). To use these with a camera that does not have 4 I/O ports, you will need to adjust the event rules.

Required Parts and Tools

PrivSwitch.png

  • VALT Privacy Switch and Face Plate
  • Mud Ring or Single Gang Box
  • Wire Cutters/Strippers
  • 22/4 solid unshielded plenum cable
  • Jab Saw (used to cut hole)
  • Wire fishing poles or tape

Installation Instructions

  1. Determine if the button will be mounted outside the entrance of the room or at a specified location in the room.
  2. Using a stud finder, scan the mounting location to ensure the device is not mounted on a stud.
  3. Cut a hole into the drywall, large enough to fit the mud ring into it securely.
    VerifactDring.JPG
  4. Run 22/4 from the camera to the hole.
  5. Strip the outer insulation from both ends of the 22/4.
    Privacy1.jpg
  6. Strip approximately 1/4 inch of insulation off of each wire in the 22/4 on the camera side
    Privacy2.jpg
  7. Insert the wires into the IO connector on the camera according to the chart below. (For a camera with a 4-pin I/O phoenix connector, use pins 3 and 4 instead of 5 and 6.)
    Privacy3.jpg
    Pin 1: Green
    Pin 2: Red
    Pin 5: Yellow
    Pin 6: Black
    See the chart at the end of this section for a direct mapping between the switch and I/O connector
  8. Strip approximately 1/2 inch of insulation off each wire in the 22/4 on the switch side.
    Privacy4.jpg
  9. Splice the wires to the switch according to the chart below.
    PrivacySwitch3.jpg

* Connections should be made with B connectors

  1. Attach the switch to the mud ring.

Manual Set up of Privacy Rules

Please skip this section if you loaded the rules to the camera already from the instructions above.

If you are complete with this page, and you did not use a config file, continue by selecting the firmware of your camera. In the case of multiple cameras, the steps on the following pages should only be done for the main camera; the recipient cameras do not need rules built.

Manually Set Up Privacy Switch Rules for 6.x Firmware

Manually Set Up Privacy Switch Rules for 8.x Firmware

Manually Set Up Privacy Switch Rules for 9.x Firmware

Set Privacy Location for PTZ Camera

If the camera is a PTZ, you need to set a Privacy Location. This can be done through the API or through the web browser of the camera.

Via API

  1. Open a web browser.
  2. Copy and paste the following link into the address bar. Replace ipaddress with the ip address of the camera:
    http://ipaddress/axis-cgi/com/ptzconfig.cgi?setserverpresetname=Privacy&home=yes
  3. Press Enter to submit the address.

Via Web Interface

Perform these steps only if configuring the mask via API fails.

  1. Open a web browser.
  2. Navigate to the IP address of the camera.
  3. If prompted, enter the username and password for the camera.
  4. Click on Setup in the upper right hand corner of the window.
    Privacy10.png
  5. Click on PTZ.
    Privacy11.png
  6. Click on Go to to navigate to the home preset.
    Privacy36.png
  7. In "Current position", type "Privacy", then click Add.

Set Privacy Mask

This can be done through the API or through the web browser of the camera.

Via API

  1. Open a web browser.
  2. Copy and paste the following link into the address bar. Replace ipaddress with the ip address of the camera:
    http://ipaddress/axis-cgi/privacymask.cgi?action=add&name=mask1&width=100&height=100
  3. Press Enter to submit the address.

Rules for Additional Cameras

In cases where there are multiple cameras in a room, the main camera (connected to the privacy switch) will need to send commands to the other cameras to enable their privacy. The rules below should be loaded onto the main camera as many times as there are additional cameras. Change the events to have the correct recipient.
