Pelco IXE manual Manual Focus

Manual Focus

Manual focus turns off the auto focus mechanism and locks the camera at a user-specified position. The camera will not focus if changes in the scene occur. This setting is recommended for indoor applications that have a single unchanging primary light source or for video analytic applications.
