CONFIGURING MANUAL FOCUS SETTINGS
Figure 25. Manual Focus Page
NOTE: It is recommended to set the focus to Manual when using analytics. If the focus is set to Auto, significant background changes will occur
when the camera automatically adjusts to different points within a scene resulting in frequently changing image sharpness. This may cause
problems with scene recognition, which will suspend analytics operation or cause false alarms.
1. Place your mouse pointer over the Imaging tab.
2. Select Focus from the drop-down menu.
3. Select the Manual mode.
4. Set one of the following settings:
Day Manual Focus Position: (Available only with day/night cameras.) This is the position of the focus mechanism when the IR cut filter
is applied. The day mode focus position range is 0 to 100.
Night Manual Focus Position: (Available only with day/night cameras.) This is the position of the focus mechanism when the IR cut filter
is removed. The night mode focus position range is 0 to 100.
Manual Focus Position: (Available only with color cameras.) This is the manual setting of the focus mechanism. The focus range is
0to100.
5. Set the Manual Focus Position. The focus range is 0 to 100.
