Overview

The privacy switch is a customizable solution for placing the cameras connected to the VALT system in privacy mode. 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 at the bottom of this article for more information.

These instruction are written for use with a camera with 4 IO ports. Port 1 and 2 are reserved for use with the VALT Recording Start/Stop button.


Compatible Cameras

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.

  • Axis P5514
  • Axis P5515
  • Axis P5414-E
  • Axis P5415-E
  • Axis F41
  • Axis P3364/65*
  • Axis P3374/75-V*
  • Axis P3235-LVE*
  • Axis Q8414-LVS*
  • Axis M5525-E
  • Axis P5635 MKII


* 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.
