FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why doesn’t my camera connect?
Verify Bluetooth is enabled or press the 
Bluetooth button to manually enable 
Bluetooth. 
Is there an internal battery?
Duo does not have an internal battery, as 
it is designed for lightweight integration 
platforms that can provide power to the 
camera, such as small Unmanned Aerial 
Systems (sUAS) or drones. Evaluate your 
sUAS for available power connections.
How do I mount on my airframe?
Duo has familiar action-camera dimensions 
that allow easy integration onto existing 
mounts; however, due to the many unique 
mount configurations it is recommended 
your system is reviewed for compatibility.
What are Radiometric JPEG images?
Radiometric JPEG images are compatible 
with FLIR’s free FLIR Tools software. FLIR 
Tools can be used to view infrared, visible, 
and MSX blended images, as well as to 
thermally tune images to bring out the 
details you need.
What is MSX?
MSX stands for Multi-Spectral Dynamic 
Imaging, which is FLIR’s patented real 
time thermal image enhancement feature. 
MSX embosses key visible light details 
onto thermal images so that structural 
edges, textures, numbers, labels, and other 
identifiable features captured by the color 
camera are highlighted. This adds extra 
perspective to the thermal image for easy 
orientation.
