8.8 Share Images and Video with a PC
Connect the meter to the PC using the supplied USB cable. The USB connector is
behind the battery in the battery compartment. The USB connection powers the
meter.
When successfully communicating with a PC the USB symbol appears (Fig. 8.6). Once
the PC recognizes the meter as an external storage drive you can offload video and
images by dragging them out of the DM286 drive.
Fig. 8.6 USB Connection Status
Note: For best results, use the supplied USB cable to connect to the meter. If using another cable, ensure
that the cable molding at the connection end is < 0.5 x 0.2 in. (11.5 x 6 mm), otherwise it will not fit in the
meter connection opening.
8.9 Temperature Scale
Navigate to the Temperature Scale icon in the Thermal Settings menu (Section 8.3)
and press OK. Use the navigation buttons to select Auto (where the camera uses the
entire thermal range), or Lock (where you can freeze the range to a narrow thermal
region).
In Fig. 8.7, below, the image on left shows the Auto mode where the temperature
range uses all the available spectrum. The image on right shows the Lock mode
where the temperature range is constrained. To constrain the range, point to a spot
in the frame that represents the temperature of interest, and then select the Lock
mode.
