  3. Attach the Serounder Lens: Gently screw the Serounder 6mm 1080P 2MP IR CCTV Lens into the M12*0.5 mount on your IP camera. Turn clockwise until it is finger-tight. Do not overtighten.
  4. Adjust Focus: Power on your camera and access its live view. Adjust the focus ring on the lens by rotating it until the image appears clear and sharp. Since this is a fixed-focus lens, fine-tuning is minimal.
  5. Secure the Lens: Once the focus is set, some cameras may have a locking screw to secure the lens in place. If available, tighten this screw gently.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your lens:

  • Cleaning the Lens: Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth specifically designed for optical surfaces. For stubborn smudges, apply a small amount of lens cleaning solution to the cloth, not directly to the lens.
  • Dust Removal: Use a blower brush or compressed air (designed for electronics) to remove dust particles from the lens surface. Avoid wiping dry, as this can scratch the lens.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the lens in a clean, dry environment, preferably in a protective case or with a lens cap to prevent dust accumulation and accidental damage.
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use solvents, alcohol, or abrasive cleaners on the lens or its housing, as these can damage the coatings or materials.
