Definition

Warning > Represents a hazardous situation or behavior that could result in personal injury or death.

Caution > Represents conditions or actions that could result in damage to the instrument or permanent loss of data.

Notice > Represents useful information for users.

Important information

Please read before using the equipment :

Warning > This is a class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.

Warning > Do not disassemble or do a modification to the battery of the thermal imager. The battery contains safety and protection devices, which, if damage occurs, can cause the battery to become hot, or cause an explosion or an ignition. If there is a leak from the battery and you get the fluid in your eyes, do not rub your eyes. Flush well with water and immediately get medical care. The battery fluid can cause injury to your eyes if you do not do this.

Warning > The thermal imager is equipped with a laser pointer. Do not look directly into the laser beam. The laser beam can cause eye irritation.

Caution > The thermal imager uses a very sensitive thermal sensor, do not point the infrared camera (with or without the lens cover) at strong energy sources, for example, devices that cause laser radiation, or the sun. This can have an unwanted effect on the accuracy of the camera. It can also cause damage to the detector in the camera.

Caution > Original packing box must be used during transportation. Please do not strongly hit the thermal imager during use and transportation.

Caution > When storing the thermal imager, it is recommended to use the original packing box and place it in a cool and dry place, away from strong electromagnetic field.

Caution > Please avoided oil and various chemical substances to contaminate or damage the surface of the lens. Please cover the lens with cap after use.

Caution > Do not use the camera in temperatures higher than +50°C (+122°F), unless other information is specified in the user documentation or technical data. High temperatures can cause damage to the camera.

Caution > In order to prevent potential risk of data loss, please copy (back up) the data to a computer periodically.

Caution > Please do not open the thermal imager’ s shell or modify it without permission. Repair services can only be performed by authorized FOTRIC personnel.

Notice > After the thermal imager is turned on, it may take about 5-10 minutes to warm up before accurate measurement.

Notice > Every thermal imager’ s temperature correction has been performed before delivered from factory.

Notice > To avoid potential hazards, Please do not use any batteries, chargers and charging docks which are not specified by the manufacturer.

The device does not support simultaneous Wi-Fi 5G and Wi-Fi 2.4G and BT, because the Wi-Fi 5G and Wi-Fi 2.4G and BT share the same antenna and can’t transmit simultaneously. There is not simultaneous transmission possibility.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Laser distance Ranger and laser pointer

1. General

The laser distance ranger consists of a laser transmitter and a laser receiver. The laser distance ranger determines the distance to a target by measuring the time it takes for a laser pulse to reach the target and return to the laser receiver. This time is converted to a distance, which is displayed on the screen.

The laser receiver also works as a laser pointer. When the laser distance ranger is on, you will see a laser dot approximately at the target.

2. Laser warning label

A laser warning label with the following information is attached to the camera:

Note

• This equipment is intended to be used in utilities , energy, manufacturing, building diagnostics, and R&D.
• It is very important to adjust the focal length correctly. An Incorrect focal adjustment will affect the imaging clarity and measurement accuracy of the thermal imager.
• The thermal imager has a resolution limit, which depends on the detector size, lens, and distance to the object. If necessary, please move closer to the object. Stay away from hazardous areas or energized electrical components.
• Be careful when using the thermal imager perpendicular to the target, because you may become the main radiation source.
• Please choose a high-emission area (for example, an area with rough surface) for measurement.
• Blank objects (with low emissivity) are mainly reflected in the environment, so they may appear wrong result in the thermal imager.
• Various types of faults (such as faults that occur in building construction) may appear same type of heat distribution pattern.
• Analysis of the infrared images requires corresponding professional knowledge.
