Adjusting the C
Mount Adapter
The Rolera Thunder features an adjustable C-mount adapter that allows you to change the focal
depth. The C-mount adapter is adjusted in the factory to nominal C-mount back focal distance.
Adjust the C-mount adapter only if you cannot achieve focus on your instrument.
If required, use a .050" hex key to adjust the adapter as follows:
1. Loosen the two setscrews and rotate the ring to the desired height (see next figure).
The amount of travel possible depends on the camera model. Tighten the screws to
lock the adapter in place, after confirming desired height.
