AXIS 2420 User’s Manual

Plane of Focus

The lens has rotational focus control that allows the focal length of the lens to be adjusted manually. Depending on the chosen physical location for your camera, it is likely that several planes of focus will exist throughout the full focusing depth of the unit; consequently, the Status Indicator is likely to display green - indicating a good level of focus - several times throughout the full travel of the lens assembly.

Focusing Procedure

Before you begin:

For the focusing algorithm to work efficiently, always ensure that there is minimal movement in the camera’s field of view when focusing, as described below.

With reference to the accompanying illustrations, follow the instructions below to achieve a good basic level of focus under stable conditions:

Important!

Do not press the Control Button for at least 10 seconds after powering up the unit, as this will cause the AXIS 2420 to return to its factory default settings.

1.Power up the AXIS 2420 and then wait at least 10 seconds.

2.Turn the lens to its extreme Far-focus (F, ) position.

3.Enable the Focus Assistant. Using a suitably

pointed object, press and continue to hold

Lens Assembly

the Control Button - until the Status

 

 

Indicator flashes Yellow.

 

 

The Focus Assistant is now enabled with the

 

 

Status Indicator set to Focus Mode. The

 

 

AXIS 2420 now initiates a focusing

 

 

algorithm to regularly calculate the quality

 

 

of focus.

 

 

4. In order for the Focus Assistant to access the full focusing range for your application environment, turn the lens slowly to its extreme Near-focus (N) position.
