So I'm dialing in my second LPR, and trying to fine-tune the focus (Dahua 5241-Z12E)
I discovered the funniest things:
1) Let's say my focus is set at 1400, and I want to improve my focus, so I log into the camera web interface, set the step control from 20 down to 5, and then I step the focus from 1400 by a couple clicks to 1410. Then I log out of the camera UI and go back to BI. Now let's say still I don't like it and I log back into the camera UI, and when I hover over the focus slider/knob, I find it's reverted back to 1400, it didn't hold 1410 when I logged out. So, I don't seem to be able to "save" my focus settings.
2) When I do log back in, I'll hover over the focus knob, and it will say 1400, then, when I click the step counter from 20 down to, say, 5, I notice the focus slider knob bump to the right, up to 1410. It doesn't wait for me to readjust the focus, it automatically bumps the knob up to 1410. So, it seems to remember that, the last time I was fine-tuning the focus, using 5 steps per click, that I was at 1410. It just doesn't HOLD it.
3) When I log in, hover over the focus knob and find it at 1400, click the step counter from 20 down to 1, you know, for real fine tuning, it automatically bumps the slider knob from 1400 to 1409, log out, log back in, and voila, back to 1400.
What am I missing? How to I fine-tune focus, and SAVE it?
Thanks as always.
