following table.
If you set [Smart Shade Control] to [Auto] or [Manual], [Haze Compensation] is set to [Disable].
• The focus set with the Admin Viewer will be applied to other users.
• Depending on the lighting used, focus may not be maintained when switching between [Day Mode] and [Night Mode]. Focus when
switching Day/Night Mode can be set in the [Day/Night Mode Focus Settings] panel in the Admin Viewer (P. 165).
• If you select [Manual] for [Exposure] (P. 162) and set the shutter speed to [1/1 sec], focus will not be maintained with [Auto] and [One-
shot AF] in [Focus]. If this occurs, use [Manual] to set the focus.
• Note that if you set the focus manually it will remain fixed.
• In conditions where an outdoor scene is captured from an indoor location through a glass window, the camera may focus on the glass
if there is dust or water on the surface. Install the camera at the shortest possible distance from the glass surface.
