Configuring sensor-specific custom camera settings

You can create a custom settings configuration to manage settings for individual sensors on a multisensor camera, which removes any association with a recording profile.

1. From the Devices page in Genetec™ Configuration web, select a multisensor camera.
2. Click the Sensors tab in the side pane.
3. From the Sensors list, select a sensor.

   

4. Click the Settings tab in the side pane.
   Note:

   The sensor Settings tab on a multisensor camera is different from the camera Settings tab because it only displays and applies settings to the selected sensor.
5. In the Video section, from the Recording profile list, select Custom.
   Note:

   Cameras configured using the Custom settings option aren’t displayed in the Recording profiles list because the custom settings only apply to the selected camera.
