Handling the camera11
The focus method is configured by a setting. Select (Settings) > Device settings >
Focus > Auto focus and then select Contrast or Laser.

11.6.3 Procedure
WARNING
When the camera is set to autofocusing with the laser method (Settings > Device settings > Focus > Au-
to focus >Laser), do not point the camera at the face of a person when you use the autofocus function.
The laser beam can cause eye irritation.
Follow this procedure:
1. To autofocus the infrared camera, push the Autofocus button.
Note You can also assign the autofocus function to one of the programmable buttons
. For more information, see section 11.12 Assigning functions to the programmable
buttons, page 34.
11.7 Continuous autofocus
11.7.1 General
The infrared camera can be set up to perform continuous autofocusing.
When the continuous autofocus function is enabled, the camera bases the focus adjust-
ments on continuous laser distance measurements. The laser is continuously on.
WARNING
Do not point the camera at the face of a person when the continuous autofocus function is on. The cam-
era uses laser distance measurements (that are continuous) for the focus adjustments. The laser beam
can cause eye irritation.
Note
• Before you can enable continuous autofocus, you need to enable the laser and select
laser as focus method. See section 11.7.2 Procedure, page 31.
• When continuous autofocus is enabled, it is not possible to manually adjust the focus
by rotating the focus ring.
