Adjust the focus
Pull the lens tool from the lens tool holder, turn it around and fit the
black rubber side to the lens. Adjust the focus. Check the image in the
Live View page, and move the lens to the desired position using the
transparent side of the lens tool. See illustration under Hardware
overview, on page 6.
After replacing the top cover, the image may appear slightly out of focus
due to the optical effect of the dome (especially in the case of tele/zoom
lenses). To compensate, focus on an object slightly closer than the
intended area. If possible, position the top cover in front of the lens
while adjusting focus.
Complete the installation
To complete the installation, replace the top cover with care and tighten
the captive screws. Ensure that the rubber gasket in the top cover, and
the ridge it fits into in the bottom plate, are dust-free.
Changing the lens
To change the lens of the network camera:
1. Fit the black rubber side of the lens tool to the lens holder and
unscrew the lens.
2. Remove the lens from the lens tool and fix the new lens to it.
3. Fit the new lens to the camera and tighten the lens into place.
Adjust the focus as described above.
