Attaching a carrying strap
● To attach either the shoulder strap or the retractable lanyard, hook
it to the D-rings at the end of the side straps.
Attaching a handle (optional)
The following handles are available:
— Crawling handle
— Image capture handle
— Transmitter handle
The thermal imaging camera can be used either with or without a
handle. The handle can be attached as follows:
● Align the thermal imaging camera and the handle. Make sure that
the pins match (if available).
● Put the camera into the U-shaped part of the handle.
Take care that the pins are not damaged.
● Attach the handle to the camera by turning the thumb wheel.
Operation
Switching the thermal imaging camera on and off
● To switch on the thermal imaging camera, briefly press the ON/
OFF button. A start-up screen will appear for approximately
5 - 8 seconds and the LED in the ON/OFF button will light until an
IR image appears on the screen. Then the LED will turn off.
The thermal imaging camera is now ready for use. A scene will appear
using the factory-set default color palette ("TempColor").
The camera sensor system conducts an automatic recalibration
periodically. This can be recognized by an audible "click" of the
shutter inside the camera housing.
● To switch off the thermal imaging camera, press the ON/OFF
button for more than 5 seconds.
The thermal imaging camera will indicate the message "Hold to
power down, release for standby”.
The screen will go blank when the camera will turn off.
Activating the stand-by mode
Using the stand-by mode will save battery capacity. When the camera
is switched on, you can activate the stand-by mode as follows:
● Press the ON/OFF button for 1 to 5 seconds.
The thermal imaging camera will indicate the message "Hold to
power down, release for standby”.
Once you have released the button, the LED in the ON/OFF button
will start flashing. This will indicate that the stand-by mode has been
activated. The display will switched off.
WARNING
The thermal imaging camera is not intrinsically safe. Do not switch
on in explosive areas! Danger of explosion!
