14.3 Adjusting the infrared camera focus manually

NOTE

Do not touch the lens surface when you adjust the infrared camera focus manually.

If this happens, clean the lens according to the instructions in section 23.2 – In-

frared lens on page 62.

■

The focus ring can be rotated infinitely, but only a certain amount of rotation is

needed when focusing.

Figure

T638779;a1

Procedure

Do one of the following:

■

For far focus, rotate the focus ring counter-clockwise (looking at the touch-screen

LCD side).

■

For near focus, rotate the focus ring clockwise (looking at the touch-screen LCD

side).
