    DESCRIPTION The EX40 Hi-Impact Dome Camera has been engineered for surveillance in hostile environments. Compact and good looking, the camera features armour-tough construction for protection against vandalism or against accidental damage. An aluminum housing, CNC-machined from a billet, with an impact resistant polycarbonate dome and locking retaining ring, make it extremely rugged and weather-tight.

  • Page 20: Section 4. Adjustments

    4. ADJUSTMENTS For optimum picture quality the camera lens must be as close as possible to the dome’s inside face, without touching. However, the foam ring around the lens should be adjusted to seal against the dome, minimizing any side light interference, but without obstructing the field of view.

  • Page 22 PTT Bracket PTT Locking Knob Base Adjustment Vertical Knobs (2) Adjustment Tilt Adjustment Lens Loosen the two adjustment knobs on the PTT bracket and tilt the lens to the desired viewing angle. The adjustment knobs are also used to position the lens for proximity to the dome. See Figure 4-3 on page 17 for lens rotational adjustment.
  • Page 23 Base Camera Rotation PTT Bracket Linear Adjustment Locking Knob Loosen the locking knob and bolt in the center of the base with a crosshead screwdriver, rotate the PTT and Camera/Lens assembly to the desired position, and re-tighten the bolt and locking knob.
  • Page 24 PTT Bracket Camera Board Disc Rotation This adjustment is necessary in case the image on the monitor is not aligned. DO NOT touch the camera lens during this adjustment. Grip the Camera board between thumb and finger. Rotate the disc until the image is correctly shown on a monitor.
  • Page 25 Loosen this set screw for Focus adjustments. Loosen this set screw for Zoom adjustments. Loosen the lens set-screws for focus/zoom adjustments. The set screw marked N ←→ ∞ is used for image focus. The set screw marked T←→ W is used for telephoto or wide-angle settings.
  • Page 26 Use a Neutral Density filter or Infra-Red Pass filter to cover the lens during focusing to simulate low light conditions on scene for correct 24-hour focusing. For camera with vari- focal lens, the camera should be focused with the lens iris fully opened to simulate the worst possible depth of field.
