ADJUSTING ZOOM AND FOCUS
Varifocal model cameras only.
Certain camera models feature varifocal lenses which allow the user to adjust
the zoom and focus of the camera to optimize it for the desired field of view.
QH6005B
The QH6005B camera has the Zoom and Focus adjustment screws located
on its underside, just behind the lens (shown at right). The camera comes from
the factory set for the widest field of view, meaning that it has the the lowest
magnification. Turn the Zoom screw clockwise to increase the magnification and
then adjust the Focus until the image is clear.
QH6006D
Unlike “bullet”-style cameras such as the QH6005B, dome cameras like the
QH6006D have their adjustments inside their cases. Undo the three hex screws
at the top of the camera’s case to remove the upper portion. It will remain
attached to the camera’s base by a wire.
The adjustment screws are located below the camera’s lens. They MUST be
loosened using a small screw driver before attempting to adjust the zoom and
focus otherwise the screws will snap off and the camera will no longer be able
to be adjusted. Be certain to gently tighten the screws once you have set your
desired zoom and focus as vibrations may otherwise cause the camera to slip
out of adjustment.
IMPORTANT! Before adjusting the zoom and focus on the camera, you MUST first loosen the screws on the
respective adjustment rings. Failure to do so will result in damage to the camera.
CONTROLLING YOUR CAMERA
The camera’s on-screen menu is accessed by the multi-function button
attached to the camera cable.
To access the on screen display, press the multi-function button. This will bring
up the menu on your system’s monitor or other attached display. This button also
acts as the Enter button when setting your parameters.
Navigate through the menu using the directional controls. The cable-mounted
multi-function button acts as a miniature joystick allowing you to move up,
down, left or right through the menu and submenus.
The next chapter describes the operation of the On-Screen Display.
