On screen display (OSD)
The on-screen display provides you with the relevant information
when you push a button on the control box or Setup menu.
In this way you always know which function you are activating and
which parameters you are using.
These settings will also be activated in Auto exposure mode.
Otherwise, exposure compensation is the only setting
visible. Iris, gain and exposure time will automatically be
adjusted to recommended settings and cannot be adjusted
in this mode.
Wait a few seconds for the menu to close and save your
settings.
Manual focus
Turn autofocus off by pushing both zoom buttons (plus
and minus) on the control box at the same time until you
hear a beep. You can now adjust focus manually with the
help of the zoom buttons.
Push this button on the control box to adjust focus if you
wish to focus on something very close.
Push this button on the control box to adjust focus if you
wish to focus on something that is farther away.
To turn the autofocus on again, simply push both zoom
buttons (plus and minus) at the same time until you hear
a beep. The focus values will show via On Screen Display.
NB: It is not possible to adjust Manual focus in the following
applications as they are reliant on the Ruler application: DXF
overlay, Particle analyzer, Speck counter, Color analyzer and
PNG reference.
Zoom
Push this button on the control box to zoom in.
Push this button on the control box to zoom out.
