Using Manual Iris Lenses

Choosing the lens correctly is very important for megapixel cameras. Poorly selected lenses may cause the

image to appear blurry when the lens iris is fully open or closed too much.

To deliver sharp megapixel resolution images, it is recommended to:

 Use megapixel-resolution lenses

 Obtain best resolution and depth of focus by having the iris slightly closed

When setting up the camera, direct the camera at the scene, fully open the iris, and then try closing the iris

slightly. At some point the image will look it’s sharpest. However,

do not close down the iris too much to the

point where the image becomes too noisy due to insufficient light.

Auto-Iris Lenses

Standard DC auto-iris lenses can be used with AV1300/1115-AI, AV2100/2115-AI, AV3100/3115-AI,

AV5100/5115-AI, AV1305-AI, AV2105-AI, AV3105-AI, and AV5105-AI and AV10115 -AI (cameras equipped

with the auto-iris feature).

Using Auto-Iris Lenses

AV1300-AI, AV1305-AI, AV2100-AI, AV2105-AI, AV3100-AI, AV3105-AI, AV5100-AI and AV5105-AI are

available with DC auto-iris option.

To use the DC auto-iris lens:

 Attach the lens to the Arecont Vision camera.

 Plug in the lens cable into the connector on the back of the camera. Make sure that the lens cable is

long enough. Many DC lenses are available with short and long cable options.

The camera will automatically detect the presence of an auto-iris DC lens and start using it.
