## **Lens Chart** 

> 1 Due to the flexibility of the replaceable lenses, focus mechanism, and imager field-of-view settings, it is possible with the 4.3 mm lens to experience reflections from the internal strobe on the inspection image. To eliminate this effect, the field-of-view can be limited to the system default of 320×240 (or 640×480 for fine), the working distance to the object should be no more than about 8 inches, or an external strobe should be used instead of the internal ring light.

## **Installing Lenses on the iVu Series Sensor** 

## **Installing a Lens on the Micro Video Lens Model** 

To install a lens on the iVu Series sensor with a Micro Video Lens, use the illustration as a guide and follow the steps listed below. 

**CAUTION:** Failure to follow these instructions may cause damage to your iVu Series sensor. 

**Micro Video Lens Models** ~~ee~~ 

|A|Lens|
|---|---|
|B|Focusing Window|
|C|Locking Clip|
|D|Locking Screw|
|E|Filter Cap (optional)|
|F|Filter (optional)|
||**NOTE:**Filter Kits are available separately.|



1. Remove the Focusing Window locking screw (D) using the 1/16 in. hex key. 

**NOTE:** The Locking Clip (C) inserts in a groove near the top of the Focusing Window (B). When removing the window, the Locking Clip will be loose. Be careful not to lose the clip while removing the window. 

2. Unscrew the Focusing Window by turning it clockwise approximately 5 complete turns or until the Focusing Window disengages from the light/lens assembly. 

**NOTE:** The light/lens assembly may include an integrated ring light or a blank disk if an integrated ring light is not used. Be careful that the light/lens assembly does not pull out when removing the Focusing Window. Give a slight tug on the Focusing Window when you think you've unscrewed it far enough. If the lens assembly moves with the window, continue to rotate the window clockwise until the lens assembly does not move. 

3. Set the Focusing Window aside. Be careful not to get any debris on the window's O-ring.
