AXIS 223M - Accessing the Camera
1. From the Basic Configuration page that you access via the Setup link, open the
Focus Adjustment page.
2. Set the DC-Iris to Disabled
and click Save.
3. Unscrew the zoom puller on
the lens by turning it
anti-clockwise. Adjust the
zoom setting as required.
Re-tighten the zoom puller.
4. Unscrew the focus puller on
the lens. Adjust the focus as
required. Re-tighten the focus puller.
5. From the Focus adjustment page, set the DC-Iris to Enabled and click Save.
Note:
The DC-Iris should always be disabled while focusing the camera. This opens the iris to its maximum, which
gives the smallest depth of field and thus the best conditions for correct focusing. When the focus is set
with this method it will then be maintained in any light conditions.
Back focus adjustment
When the lens is changed to a non-standard
lens or when the focus achieved using the
instructions above is not satisfactory, perform
back focus adjustment as follows:
1. Loosen the screw that holds the
C/CS-ring. C is standard on AXIS
223M and CS on AXIS 221.
2. Direct the camera towards an object
at least 7 meters away, set the zoom
puller to max wide and check that it is possible to focus the lens.
3. Set the zoom puller to max tele and again check that it is possible to focus the
lens.
4. Directing the camera towards a close object, about 30cm away, and set the zoom
puller to max wide and check that it is possible to focus the lens.
5. Set the zoom puller to max tele and again check that it is possible to focus the
lens.
6. If it is not possible to focus the lens in any of the four situations above, adjust the
C/CS-ring, and go back to step 2.
7. Tighten the screw that holds the C/CS-ring again.
8. After making the back focus adjustment as explained above, adjust the zoom and
focus position for the desired view.
