Adjust Focus
To adjust the zoom and focus follow these instructions:
Note
• Set focus as precisely as possible with the focus ring or Focus Assistant before starting automatic fine tuning. Using
the focus ring normally gives the best result.
• The iris should always be opened to its maximum while focusing. This gives the smallest depth of field and thus the
best conditions for correct focusing.
1. Open the product’s home page and go to
Setup
>
Basic Setup
>
Focus
.
2. Under the
Basic
tab, click
Open iris
. If the button is inactive the iris is already open.
3. If focus has been set before, click
Reset
to reset the back focus.
4. Loosen the zoom puller and the lock screw for the focus ring (see
Hardware Overview on page 6
) on the lens by turning
them counter-clockwise. Move the zoom puller and the focus ring to set zoom and focus and check the quality of the
image in the image window. If the camera is mounted so that you cannot look at the image and move the zoom puller and
the focus ring at the same time, use the Focus Assistant instead. See
Focus Assistant on page 21
.
5. Re-tighten the zoom puller and the lock screw for the focus ring.
6. On the Focus page, click
Fine-tune focus automatically
and wait until automatic fine tuning is completed.
7. Click
Enable iris
. If the button is inactive the iris is already enabled.
8. If needed, make further adjustments under the
Advanced
tab. See the online help for more information.
