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 10) 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 22.
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.
