Ignite SDC/HDC Robotic Camera Instruction Manual

Section 3 — Operation

Black balance adjustment.

This adjustment is needed when the camera is used for the first
time, after being unused for a long time, or when the ambient tem-
perature changes significantly (i.e. seasonal changes).

Note

After adjusting the black balance, re-adjustment is not needed under the
same conditions.

Flange back adjustment for zoom lens

This adjustment is used to set the focus range of the zoom lens from
maximum (telephoto) to wide angle.

Note

This adjustment is performed at the factory and will typically not need to be
performed in the field, unless it is necessary to change the lens.

•

Fully open the iris by shooting a dark object from a distance of

at least 6.6 ft (2 m).

•

Loosen the flange back fixing knob.

Figure 14. Zoom Lens Adjustments

•

Set the lens to maximum zoom and adjust the focus by turning

the focus ring.

•

Set the lens to widest angle and adjust the focus by turning the

flange back adjust ring.

•

Repeat adjustment of focus ring and flang back adjust ring until

the focus is adjusted through the entire zoom range.

•
