Adjust the focus faster with focus recall areas
To save the focus settings at a specific pan/tilt range, add a focus recall area. Each time the camera moves into that area it recalls the
previously saved focus. It’s enough to cover half of the focus recall area in the live view.
We recommend the focus recall feature in the following scenarios:
•
When there is a lot of manual operation in live view, for example with a joystick.
•
Where PTZ preset positions with manual focus are not efficient, for example movements where the focus setting changes
continuously.
•
In low-light scenarios, where the autofocus is challenged by the lighting conditions.
Important
• The focus recall overrides the camera’s autofocus at the specific pan/tilt range.
• A preset position overrides the focus setting saved in the focus recall area.
• The maximum number of focus recall areas is 20.
Create a focus recall area
1. Pan, tilt, and zoom into the area where you would like to have focus.
As long as the focus recall button shows a plus
, you can add a focus recall area in that position.
2. Adjust the focus.
3. Click the focus recall button.
Delete a focus recall area
1. Pan, tilt, and zoom into the focus recall area you want to delete.
The focus recall button toggles to minus when the camera detects a focus recall area:

2. Click the focus recall button.
Benefit from IR light in low-light conditions using night mode
Your camera uses visible light to deliver color images during the day. As the available light diminishes, you can set the camera to
automatically shift to night mode, in which the camera uses both visible light and near-infrared light to deliver black-and-white
images. Since the camera uses more of the available light it can deliver brighter, more detailed, images.
1. Go to
Settings > Image > Day and night
, and make sure that the
IR cut filter
is set to
Auto
.
2. To determine at what light level you want the camera to shift to night mode, move the
Threshold
slider toward
Bright
or
Dark
