Appendix C 
Adapter Adjustment and Focusing 
Procedures 
 
Adjustable C-Mount Adapter 
PIXIS cameras are now available with an adjustable C-mount adapter. The camera is 
adjusted at the factory for standard C-mount focusing distance. However, you may want 
to adjust the focusing distance for your application.   
Tools Required 
  Spanner (supplied)   
  Small flat blade screwdriver 
Procedure 
1.  Using a small flat blade screwdriver, loosen the 
lock screws. 
2.  Use the spanner to rotate the C-mount adapter the 
desired distance. 
3.  Tighten the lock screws to lock the C-mount 
adapter in place. 
Note:
 To tighten down the screws, the face of the 
adapter should be no further than .06" (1.5 mm) 
out from the front surface of the camera nose.  
 
Caution 
 
The C-mount lens thread-depth should be .21" (5.3 mm) or less. Otherwise, depending on 
the adapter in-out location, the lens could bottom out and damage the shutter, if there is 
one installed. If you are not certain of the thread depth, remove the adapter from the 
camera, thread the lens into the adapter until the lens threads are flush with the back 
surface of the adapter. Note the depth at the front surface, remove the lens, and then re-
insert the adapter into the camera nose.
