To view and dewarp video images in Security Desk that were captured using an Samsung 360 degree fish-eye camera lens, you must configure the lens in Config Tool.

What you should know

Dewarping allows you to zoom in on a 360° image, similar to the digital zoom feature in Security Desk. The zoomed image is dewarped, or flattened to show a rectangular image.
IMPORTANT: Samsung fish-eye cameras that have been previously added to your Security Center system prior to 5.5 SR4 will continue to use the Samsung Techwin lens. If you want to use the Panomorph lens as described in this task, remove the fisheye camera from your Security Center system and add it back again.

Procedure

  1. From the Video task in Config Tool, select the camera to configure.
  2. Click the Hardware tab.
  3. From the Lens type drop-down list, select Panomorph.
  4. Click Edit ().
  5. In the Configure lens dialog box, do the following:
    1. Select the Camera position.
    2. Select the Panomorph Lens Type (RPL).
      The lens is supplied from the manufacturer with the unit.
  6. Under Manual calibration click Calibrate.
  7. Click OK > Apply.
