Adjust Focus/ Replace Lens
The Internet Camera features an exchangeable CS-type lens that can be used for
different applications as necessary. It supports rotational focus control so the lens can
be adjusted to focus under normal and stable conditions to maximize the image quality
of the Internet Camera.
Adjust Internet Camera Focus
To adjust the focus of the lens you need to turn the lens slowly in either clockwise or
counterclockwise direction until the desired image appears. DO NOT over turn the lens
in either of the directions as it will be out of focus. DO NOT unscrew more than 1.0mm
apart from the Fixed Lens Assembly unless you want to substitute the lens. While
adjusting the Internet Camera's focus you can review the image quality from the Web
browser.
Note: You can also adjust the Internet Camera's image quality through the Web Con-
figuration under System Administration -Image. Please refer to Configuration
chapter for further details.
