2.13.2 Adjusting the Lenses, Visual Check
Make sure that you see the live image of the camera on the monitor of your com-
puter or laptop. Now adjust the lenses one by one until you see the desired image
area on your monitor:
• Remove the camera dome using a lint-free cotton cloth.
• Release the lens' lock ring, adjust the image focus and tighten
the lock ring again. Never turn the lens to far into the lens
mount and never apply excessive force when doing so as
this would damage the lens mount otherwise.
• Make sure that the lenses' ribbon cables are properly secured.
• Make sure that the cable clamps are properly seated. This will prevent the
cable clamps from falling into the dome and obscuring parts of the image
once the camera has been mounted.
• Mount the dome again using the cotton cloth and finally check the focus of
both lenses on the monitor.

Caution (Only 135mm Tele Lenses)
Image Focus: Due to the lens effect of the dome, the focus of the
135mm tele lens is shifting slightly once the dome has been mounted.
Before mounting the dome, the tele lens should be turned about 90°
in counter-clockwise direction (as seen from the lens' front). Make
sure that you check the focus of the live image in your browser with the
dome installed and re-adjust the lens, if required.
Note
Use the focusing aid of the MOBOTIX camera to properly adjust the
lens' focus (see Section 4.3.3,
Image and Audio Settings, Quick Controls
in the Software Manual ).
