Laserliner 082 084 ThermoCamera Compact Plus-Pro
Read the operating instructions and the enclosed brochure „Guarantee and additional notices“ completely. Follow the instructions they contain. This document must be kept in a safe place and if the laser device is passed on, this document must be passed on with it.
Function / Application
This thermographic camera allows for non-contact temperature measurement on
surfaces by means of radiation in the infrared wavelength range via the
integrated non-chilled microbolometer. The imaging technology of the sensor
provides a visual image of the temperatures surrounding the inspected object.
The temperature differences can be visualized by color-coding the individual
temperatures in a thermo-gram with false color display. Possible application
options include detecting thermal bridges and insulation flaws, locating
overheating spots in electrical or mechanical building elements, finding
heating pipes in walls or floors, detecting leaks, locating defective solar
cells in PV modules etc.

Up to three measuring points can be defined simultaneously (Spot (S): the
temperature at center of image,
Max (H): highest temperature, MIN (C): lowest
temperature).
Emissivity
Before each use, check the settings for infrared measurement and adjust them
to the respective measuring situation to ensure accurate measurements. Pay
particular attention to the general parameters for the emissivity coefficient
and the reflection temperature
Emissivity: Emissivity coefficient
The level of infrared emissions given off by everything depends on the
specific material and surface. This factor is determined by the emissivity
coefficient (0.10 … 1.0). For accurate measurements, it is absolutely
essential that the emissivity coefficient is set first. The emissivity
coefficient can either be custom set or selected based on the predefined
emissivity coefficients from the material list.
Note: Pressing and holding the button increases or decreases the value in step of 10.

Emissivity: Reflection temperature
Reflection temperature
Infrared measurements of specific objects can be affected by reflection from
other objects nearby or even from the ambient air because the measured object
cannot be fully isolated. The reflection temperature setting can help
compensate for the interference. The reflection temperature is generally the
same as the ambient temperature. However, if larger objects with significantly
different temperatures (approx. > 20 °C) are in close proximity to the
measured area, its effects must be taken into account. For this purpose,
follow these steps:
- Set the emissivity coefficient to 1.0
- Blur the object out of focus (Refer to Section 14)
- Aim the camera in the opposite direction of the actual measured object
- Determine the average temperature
- Set the average temperature as the reflection temperature
Image modes
There are 3 image modes to choose from.
- IR image (IR)
- Digital image (Visible)
- Digital full-screen image with IR image (MIX)
Color ranges IR image
You can choose from several standard colour ranges to represent the measured
infrared temperatures. Depending on the colour palette, the measured
temperatures are adjusted within the current image section and displayed in
the respective colour space. The bargraph for the respective minimum/ maximum
temperatures of the entire image serves as a reference for the corresponding
temperature/ colour mapping.
Measurement range
Pre-selection of measurement range:
-20°C … 150°C
(ideal for interior and exterior)
0°C … 350°C
(ideal for industrial applications)
Temperature range manual / automatic
Automatic temperature range
This setting is used to adjust the temperature range of the IR image and the
resulting distribution of the colour spectrum of the infrared image. The
colour spectrum of the measured IR image is determined in relation to the
temperature range and colour scale.
The colour distribution of the IR image is automatically and dynamically
adjusted in the bargraph based on the measured min./max. values.
Manual temperature range
In manual settings mode, the temperature range is no longer set automatically
based on the measured min./max. values but rather determined on the basis of
manual values. Refer to Section 13
Note: The min/max values last measured are taken as the default setting every time the temperature range is switched from AUTO to Manual.
Manual temperature range
Camera focus / Shutter-function
In addition to the basic settings in the measuring tool, the camera focus and
the shutter function
(image calibration) play an essential role in achieving high-quality
thermography results. You should focus on the measured object as well as
possible so that the outlines and contours are clearly visible on the display.
Image calibration takes place automatically or can be triggered manually by
briefly pressing the ON/OFF button.
Zoom
The view can be zoomed (32x). Pressing and holding the button accelerates the
zoom levels.
Media gallery/playback mode / to delete recording
In the media gallery, you can access and play all of the images and videos
recorded with the ThermoCamera Compact
Capture image / record audio
Using the „Trigger“ button (11), users can take images or video of any
measurement situation for the subsequent documentation. The microphone
integrated in the headset also records audio while recording a
video.
Note: You cannot record anything without a storage medium.
Target laser
The target laser makes area-specific measurements easier by facilitating pinpointing. In addition, the laser is represented as a red dot on the display. Press and hold button „b“ to switch the device on and off.
LED lighting
The LED lighting is switched ON/OFF by pressing and holding button „g“.
USB data transfer
Data saved on the SD card can be transferred to PC either with a suitable card reader or directly via the USB port. Please refer to the manual supplied with your card reader for information about connecting your card adapter or card reader to a PC.
Transfer via USB interface
Software (optional)
With the software provided on the CD it is possible to transfer the recorded
data to a PC and to use the data for further processing and documentation.
Load the CD in the drive and follow the installation routine. After successful
installation, start the application. Connect one end of the supplied USB cable
to the mini-USB port of the device and the other end to a free USB port on
your computer. For further information on how to use the software, refer to
the Help function that contains a detailed description of the functions.
Note: It is not necessary to install a driver. The software operates
under Windows XP / 7 / 8 and 10.
