Real-time video output
When using, pull out the cover of the Type-C interface of the instrument and insert the configured cable to access the display on the monitor or other long-distance transmission.
Precautions
Because the uncooled infrared telescope uses a very sensitive thermal sensor, under no circumstances (power on or off) should the lens be directly aimed at a strong radiation source (such as the sun, laser beam direct or reflection, etc.), otherwise it will cause permanent damage to the uncooled infrared telescope!
Use lens cloth and clean water to gently wipe clean, do not use organic solvents or sharp hard objects to clean the infrared lens, so as not to cause the lens film to fall off and so on!
After the laser ranging function is turned on, do not irradiate the eyes to avoid injury!
Please check the power when using the instrument for the first

time. If necessary, charge the instrument for three hours before use. When charging the USB, please place the instrument at room temperature. Do not open the enclosure or modify it without authorization, and the maintenance can only be carried out by the authorized personnel of the company.
