7.21 Performing a non-uniformity correction
(NUC)
7.21.1 What is a non-uniformity correction?
A non-uniformity correction is an image correction carried out by the camera software to
compensate for different sensitivities of detector elements and other optical and geomet-
rical disturbances
1
.
7.21.2 When to perform a non-uniformity correction?
The non-uniformity correction process should be carried out whenever the output image
becomes spatially noisy. The output can become spatially noisy when the ambient tem-
perature changes (such as from day to night operation, and vice versa).
7.21.3 Procedure
To perform a non-uniformity correction, push and hold the Image archive button
for
more than 2 seconds.
7.22 Configuring Wi-Fi
Depending on your camera configuration, you can connect the camera to a wireless local
area network (WLAN) using Wi-Fi, or let the camera provide Wi-Fi access to another
device.
You can connect the camera in two different ways:
Most common use: Setting up a peer-to-peer connection (also called an ad hoc or
P2P connection). This method is primarily used with other devices, e.g., an iPhone or
iPad.
Less common use: Connecting the camera to a WLAN.
7.22.1 Setting up a peer-to-peer connection (most common use)
