Numbers indicate the level of focusing in order to adjust the field-of-view. 
To set-up a focus area (if necessary), draw a rectangle with the mouse 
(by left-clicking and dragging the mouse to a desired zoom size). To 
automatically adjust focus, choose “Full-range Focusing” or “Short-range 
Focusing” depending on the image clarity. 
Full-range 
Focus 
Best for scenes that are completely out of focus. The camera 
automatically scans the full focus range of the scene to find the best 
focus position. 
Short-range 
Focus 
Best for scenes that are slightly of out of focus. The camera quickly fine-
tunes for a precise focus position. 
Stop 
Stops any command in progress. 
Focus Aid 
The higher the focus aid value means the more the lens is required to focus. 
If the focus window box illuminates GREEN, the lens has reached its optimal 
focus level. 
If the focus window box illuminates RED, the lens is having difficulty reaching an 
optimal focus level. 
If the focus window box illuminates YELLOW, the focusing of the lens remains 
unchanged. 
If the focus window box illuminates GREY, the focusing of the lens has been 
completed.
