Replacing The Lens; Removing And Attaching The Lens - Axis 223M User Manual

Replacing the lens

If the lens on the AXIS 223M needs to be replaced or if the camera was supplied without a lens, a new lens can
be fitted quickly and easily. As the AXIS 223M is designed with a C-mount, the lens supplied with your product
can be replaced with any standard C or CS lens.
Note:
Although the lens supplied with your product can be directly replaced with any C-type lens, a CS-type lens must be installed with an
adapter for it to work with your AXIS 223M. An adapter effectively moves the lens 5mm closer to the camera.

Removing and attaching the lens

1. Disconnect the power supply to the AXIS 223M.
2. Disconnect the DC-Iris cable.
3. Unscrew the lens by turning it anti-clockwise.
4. CS-lens only: Attach the new lens to the supplied
CS-adapter.
5. Screw on the new lens until it is tight against the metal ring
at the back.
6. Attach the DC-Iris cable to the camera and reconnect the
power supply.
7. To focus the new lens, see Focusing, on page 8.
Note:
In the unlikely case that the camera images are still blurred after focusing the lens, loosen the screw on the underside of the camera
that holds the metal ring in place. Turn the metal ring in small increments until a sharp image is obtained. Tighten the screw on the
underside of the camera.
