• The back focus (step 2) should only be reset if the camera has been focused previously.
• Set focus as precisely as possible using the focus puller on the lens (step 3) before starting the automatic ne-tuning (step 4).
• If the camera is placed so that it is difcult to look at the image and move the pullers at the same time, you can use the
Focus Assistant to focus the camera; for instructions, see the Installation Guide supplied with the product.

The tools on this page can be used to nd the optimal focus position. Always open the iris before focusing and enable it when nished
focusing. Focus is measured in the part of the image covered by the Focus window. Use the mouse to move and resize the window
and then click Fine-tune focus automatically. If needed, click in the Focus position bar or on the arrows at the ends of the bar, to
further adjust the focus. The buttons < and > move the focus position one step in either direction. The buttons << and >> move the
focus position multiple steps in either direction. Clicking on the bar sets focus to that position.
If the camera is not focused after completing the above instructions, try the Full range focus scan. The scan, which can take
several minutes, transforms the focus position bar to a graph where peaks indicate the best focus positions. Click in the graph
to set focus to the desired position.
