AXIS P1365 Network Camera
Adjust Focus
To adjust the zoom and focus follow these instructions:
Note
• Set focus as precisely as possible with the focus puller or Focus Assistant before starting
automatic ne tuning. Using the focus puller normally gives the best result.
• The iris should always be opened to its maximum while focusing. This gives the smallest
depth of eld and thus the best conditions for correct focusing.
1. Open the product’s home page and go to Setup > Basic Setup > Focus.
2. Under 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 (see Hardware Overview on page 10) on the lens by
turning them counter-clockwise. Move the pullers to set zoom and focus and check
the quality of the image in the image window. 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 Focus Assistant on page 18.
5. Re-tighten the zoom and focus pullers.
6. On the Focus page, click Fine-tune focus automatically and wait until automatic ne
tuning is completed.
7. Click Enable iris. If the button is inactive the iris is already enabled.
8. If needed, make further adjustments under the Advanced tab. See the online help for
more information.
Focus Assistant
Note
• The view in front of the camera should not be changed during focus adjustment (steps
5 and 6). If the camera is moved, or if a nger or other object is placed in front of the
lens, steps 3 - 7 will have to be repeated.
• If movements in front of the camera cannot be avoided, the Focus Assistant should not
be used.
• If the camera is mounted so that the Function button cannot be accessed, you can still
use the Focus Assistant. Follow the instructions below but mount the camera after step
4, pressing the Function button instead and skip step 7.
To focus your network camera using the Focus Assistant, follow steps 1 - 3 under Adjust Focus on
page 18 before you start with the steps below. See Hardware Overview on page 10.
1. Mount or place the camera so that it cannot be moved.
