To view and dewarp video images in Security Desk that were captured using a Vivotek
fisheye camera lens, you must configure the lens in Config Tool.
What you should know
Dewarping allows you to zoom in on a 360-degree image, similar to the digital zoom
feature in Security Desk. The zoomed image is
dewarped, or flattened to show a rectangular image.
