z  Adjust the camera angle.
When determining the camera angle, repeat fine adjustments by gradually moving the panning 
table, tilting table, and azimuth adjustment ring. 
Horizontal position (Panning)
Loosen the panning lock screw, rotate the panning table to adjust the pan direction. (Adjustable 
range: 340 °)
Panning is possible within the range of 180 ° (when panning clockwise) and 160 ° (when panning 
counterclockwise). 
After adjustment, tighten the panning lock screw to fix the panning table. 
(Recommended tightening torque: 0.59 N·m {0.44 lbf·ft})
Vertical position (Tilting)
Loosen the tilting lock screws (x2), and rotate the tilting 
table to adjust the tilting direction. (Adjustable range: 
±75 °) Since a variable focal lens is used, it is possible to 
change the angular field of view. This lens can also be 
rotated in the reverse direction, but the image azimuth is 
reversed. In this case, the image azimuth can be modified 
when the panning table is rotated to the direction of clock-
wise panning (180 °).

    After adjustment, tighten the tilting lock screws (x2) to fix the tilting table. 
    (Recommended tightening torque: 0.59 N·m {0.44 lbf·ft})
Note:
  •  When the tilting table is turned to the edge of the adjustable range (±75°), it must be noted that 
the shadow of the enclosure may be projected.
  •  When the camera is installed to a wall, the image is reversed in the default settings. To correct 
the way the image is displayed, rotate the panning table 180° clockwise, or select On for 
Upside-down from the setup menu. For information about performing the Upside-down set-
ting from the setup menu, refer to the Operating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM).

x  Adjust the angular field of view and the focus. 
    Adjust the angular field of view in accordance with the distance between the camera lens and a 
photographic subject. These adjustments shall be performed together with the camera angle 
adjustment.
 q  Loosen the zoom lock knob and move the knob between TELE and WIDE to obtain the appro-
priate angle of view. 
 w  Press the auto focus (AF) button twice quickly to perform basic adjustments. The lamp blinks 
during auto focus (AF) adjusting. When the adjustment is completed, adjust the viewing angle 
while watching the screen.
Note:
  •  The focus may not be adjusted appropriately when the zoom lock knob is positioned at the 
W (or T) end. In this case, adjust the focus again by slightly turning the zoom lock knob to 
the direction of T (or W).
  •  With basic adjustments, the focus can be adjusted quickly. For more accurate adjustments use 
the detailed adjustments.
 e  To adjust the angular field of view with a higher zooming effect even after turning the zoom lock 
knob almost fully in the T direction, hold down the auto focus (AF) button/extra optical zoom 
button for 5 seconds or more. 2x extra optical zoom will be applied. When the image capture 
size under VGA is applied, the zoom factor can be adjusted up to 2x without deterioration of 
image quality. When holding down the auto focus (AF) button/extra optical zoom button again 
for 5 seconds or more, 1x extra optical zoom will be applied. 
 r  Tighten the zoom lock knob. 
 t  After fixing the viewing angle, press the auto focus (AF) button once. The auto focus lamp lights 
for about 10 seconds, and a detailed adjustment for the focus is automatically performed.

  •  Defocus may be caused by the reinstalled enclosure. In this case, perform the auto focus func-
tion from the setup menu. 
  •  After performing basic adjustments, make sure to press the auto focus (AF) button once to per-
form detailed adjustments.
Note:
  •  If the zoom lock knob is fully turned in the W direction, the periphery may become dark. In 
such a case, turn the zoom lock knob in the T direction for readjustment.
  •  If the zoom lock knob is slightly tightened before the zoom is adjusted, the knob will become 
stable, making fine adjustments easier to perform.
  • When shooting in the following place or the following subjects, focus may not be adjusted 
automatically. In this case, adjust the focus manually from the setup menu. Refer to the 
Operating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM) for how to perform the manual focus adjust-
ment from the setup menu. 
  •  Subj. moving frequently
  •  Subj. with large illuminance change
  •  Subj. with low illuminance
  •  Subj. with reflection or extra brightness
  •  Subj. through a window
  •  Place where the dome cover easily becomes dirty
  •  Subj. with less contrast such as white wall
  •  Subj. with heavy flicker
  • If the 2x extra optical zoom is applied when 2048×1536, 1920×1080, 1280x960, 
1280x720 is selected for the image capture size, the image quality will be deteriorated 
because the effect of Extra Optical Zoom is not provided. 
  •  When images in the near-infrared light area change from color to black & white, out-of-focus 
may be occurred according to the nature of optical property. In this case, the focus can auto-
matically be corrected by selecting Auto or Preset for Adjusting method on the setup 
menu (The focus will not automatically be adjusted according to the illumination level change 
once the focus is corrected.) Refer to the Operating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM) for 
how to set Adjusting method on the setup menu.
