Iris adjustment
The working point of the iris should always be above the AGC start
and below that of the white clip. This range is very small with
some cameras, making it difficult to adjust the lens. It is therefore
advisable to switch off the AGC (if possible) when adjusting the iris.
Once the lens has been focussed, the AGC must be switched back
on (only for cameras which allow the AGC to be switched off).
In the case of DC lenses, the working point of the iris is adjusted at
the camera‘s level potentiometer (the AI amplifier is built into the
camera).
7. Troubleshooting
If problems occur, verify the installation of the camera with the instructions in this manual and
with other operating equipment. Isolate the problem to the specific piece of equipment in the
system and refer to the equipment manual for further information.
