Return to the observation interface by clicking the gallery button, back button or touching the screen.

Measurement Mode

In the observation interface, press OK shortly to enter the main menu, and select “Measurement Settings” with the navigation button. Press OK again to enter the secondary menu, select different measurement modes by shifting left or right on the navigation button, and press OK to save your option.In the observation interface, click anywhere on the screen to enter the main menu. Then click “Measurement Settings” to select the desired measurement mode, and make it effective by clicking the screen area.

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.In the observation interface, click anywhere on the touch screen to enter the main menu. Click “palette setting” to choose a palette and save your option by clicking the screen area.

Image Mode
Image Mode Introduction: Four image modes are available.

Thermal Fusion: an image fused to a certain scale between an infrared image and a visible image
PIP: infrared image superimposed at the center of the visible image
Thermal imaging: infrared images
Digital camera: visible images

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

In the observation interface, press OK shortly to enter the main menu, and select “image mode” through the navigation button. Then press OK again to enter the secondary menu, there different image mode can be selected by shifting left or right on the navigation button. Save your option by pressing enter button.
In the observation interface, click any place on the screen to enter the main menu. Click “image mode” and select the desired image mode, and then click on the screen area. The option is saved.

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, press the back button or the gallery button continuously 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 range ” on the right side of the screen.
Press “A” in the upper right corner of the interface to return to auto- contrast mode.

Other Settings

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

In the observation interface, press OK shortly to enter the main menu, and select “Settings” to enter other settings.
In the observation interface, tap anywhere on the screen to enter the main menu, and tap “Settings” to enter other settings.
