Focus Adjustment

Make sure that the device is powered on, align the camera at the measured scene, rotate the focus ring beside the lens clockwise or counterclockwise, which can make the image clearer via focal length adjustment, see the following figure for the detailed adjustment method:

**Figure 8.1 Focus Adjustment Through Focus Ring**

Images/Videos Capture

In the observation interface, adjust the focus ring till the image is clear. Short press the trigger button to take the photo. Long press the trigger button to start recording video, release the trigger button to continue recording, and long press the trigger button again to stop recording.
Tap the save button on the touch screen or click the OK button or short press the trigger button to save the photos. Tap other buttons on the touch screen or use the navigation button + OK to scan the QR code to name the file, or cancel saving photos.

View Photos/Videos
The pictures you took are saved in the SD card, and you can follow the below steps to view them at any time.

Enter the photo gallery by clicking gallery button.
Select the picture or video you want to view by pressing the navigation button or screen.
Press OK or click the picture or video to view it in full screen. Select the delete option and then confirm to delete the current item. Select the rename option and confirm to rename the current item.
When in the preview interface, click the multiple button in the upper right corner of the screen, then select the picture or video to be deleted, and delete the selected items by pressing the delete button.
Return to observation interface by clicking the gallery button, back button or touch screen.

Set Gas Detection Mode

On the observation interface, short press the OK button to show the main menu, and select the Gas Detection Mode option, press the OK button again to show the sub menu, select On or Off by navigating left or right, then click the OK button to configure the parameters, click the OK button again to enable the function.
On the observation interface, click anywhere on the touch screen to show the main menu, click the Gas
Detection Mode option, click On or Off, click the image area to enable the function.

Measurement Parameters

In the observation interface, press OK to enter the main menu, use the navigation button to select the
Parameter Setting , then press OK again to enter the secondary menu. Select different temperature measurement parameters by shifting left or right, and press the enter button to parameterize. After setting, press OK again to save your option.
In the observation interface, click anywhere on the screen to enter the main menu. Click Parameter
Setting to set the parameter. After finishing the setting, click the screen area to take effect.
Emissivity : in order to obtain more accurate measurement results, you need to set the emissivity according to the target to be measured before each measurement, instead of using the default configuration. Emissivity refers to the ratio of the radiant ability of an object to the radiant ability of a blackbody at the same temperature, which is relative to the reflectivity of the object. The lower the emissivity, the higher the proportion of energy being reflected. The higher the emissivity, the lower the proportion of energy being reflected. For example, the emissivity of human skin is 0.98, and the emissivity of printed circuit boards is 0.91. For more information on emissivity, you can refer to the quick start guide in the package or inquire from other sources.
Ambient temperature : the reflection temperature of the object surface will affect the measurement result, especially when the object emissivity is low or the object temperature and the reflection temperature differ greatly, this effect will increase. So the result needs to be compensated to eliminate influences of the surface reflection temperature. However, it is usually difficult to determine the reflected temperature of an object. The ambient temperature can be used to replace the reflected temperature in actual measurement.
Distance : distances have effects on the measurement results. In order to get accurate measurement, distance information of the object is necessary for the thermal camera to compensate the result

Palettes

In the observation interface, short press OK to enter the main menu, and select Palette Setting with the navigation button. Press OK again to enter the sub menu, select different palettes by shifting left and right on the navigation button, and then press the enter button to save your option.

Setting to choose a palette and save your option by clicking the screen area.

mage Mode
Image Mode Introduction
Four image modes are available.

Infrared : infrared image.
Visible : visible image.
PIP : infrared image superimposed at the center of the visible image
Thermal Fusion: an image fused to a certain scale between an infrared image and a visible image Note: For better dual-light image effects, when in PIP or thermal fusion modes, you need to set the actual distance, that is, the approximate distance from the thermal camera to the object. If the preset registration parameters cannot meet the requirements, you can also manually perform fusion registration in the settings.

Setting Steps

Non-uniformity Correction
Non-uniformity Correction Introduction

Non-uniformity correction is used to compensate for non-uniformity of detector pixels or non-uniformity caused by other optical interference. When there are more noise in the image, non-uniformity correction is needed, which is common when the ambient temperature changes rapidly.

Non-uniformity Correction Operations

In the imaging interface , long press the back button or the gallery button to perform non-uniformity correction.

Contrast Adjustment

In the observation interface, the contrast of the infrared image can by adjusted by sliding up and down the arrow button on the temperature scale on the right side of the screen. The default temperature scale is 24.2℃-34.6℃ in the auto mode.

After the lower limit is changed to 27.7℃ manually:

Click the A button in the bottom right corner to return to the auto contrast mode, the upper limit and lower limit will adjust automatically according to the Min temperature and Max temperature on the image, and the image color will distribute based on the color of the temperature scale.

Digital Zoom
In observation interface, press the navigation button to perform Max. 8×digital zoom.
Note: this function is only enabled under infrared mode or visible mode.
Other Settings

Other settings include date and time, unit, language and other items.

In the observation interface, short press the OK button to enter the main menu, and select Settings via the navigation button, then press the OK button to enter other settings.
