AXIS Q1602-E/AXIS Q1604-E Installation Guide

Adjust zoom and focus

To adjust the zoom and focus follow these instructions:

1.Open the product’s home page and go to Setup > Basic Setup > Focus.

2.On 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 and focus pullers on the lens by turning them anti-clockwise. Move the pullers to set zoom and focus and check the quality of the image in the image window.

Note:

If the camera is mounted so that one cannot look at the image and move the pullers at the same time, use the Focus Assistant instead. See page 17.

5.Retighten the zoom and focus pullers.

6.On the Focus page, click Fine-tune focus automatically and wait until the automatic fine- tuning is completed.

7.Click Enable iris. If the button is inactive, the iris has already been enabled.

8.If needed, make further adjustments on the Advanced tab. See the online help or User Manual for more information.

Notes:

Set focus as precisely as possible with the focus puller or Focus Assistant before starting the automatic fine-tuning. Using the focus puller normally gives the best result.

The iris should always be opened to its maximum while focusing, which gives the smallest depth of field and thus the best conditions for correct focusing.
