Overlay
Overlays are used to provide extra information, for example for forensic video analysis or during product installation and
conguration. Overlays are superimposed over the video stream.
An overlay text can display the current date and time, or a text string. When using a text string, modiers can be used to display
information such as the current bit rate or the current frame rate. For information about available modiers, see File Naming &
Date/Time Formats in the online help
.
It is also possible to display text when an action rule is triggered, see Using Overlay Text in an Action Rule.

1. Go to Video > Video Stream and select the Image tab.
2. To include an overlay image, select Include overlay image at the coordinates. The overlay image must rst be uploaded to
the Axis product, see Overlay Image.
3. To include date and time, select Include date and Include time.
4. To include a text string, select Include text and enter the text in the eld. Modiers can be used, see FileNaming &
Date/Time Formats in the online help
.
5. Dene text overlay characteristics in the relevant elds.

To modify the date and time format, go to System Options > Date & Time. See Date & Time, on page 36.

Overlay Image
An overlay image is a static image superimposed over the video stream. The image, for example company logo, is used to provide
extra information or to mask a part of the image.
Since it is static, the position and size of an overlay image will remain the same regardless of resolution and Pan/Tilt/Zoom
movements. To set up a dynamic mask, which will always mask the specied part of monitored area, see PrivacyMask, on page 19
To use an overlay image, the image must rst be uploaded to the Axis product:
1. Go to Video > Overlay Image.
2. Click Browse and browse to the le.
3. Click Upload.
4. Select the image to use from the Use overlay image list.
5. Click Save.
To display the overlay image:
1. Go to Video > Video Stream and select the Image tab.
2. Under Overlay Settings, select Include overlay image at the coordinates and enter the X and Y coordinates.
3. Click Save.
