G. Changing the temperature scale mode
The camera can operate in different temperature scale modes (depending on the camera
model):
Auto mode: In this mode, the camera is continuously auto-adjusted for the
best image brightness and contrast.
Manual mode: This mode allows manual adjustments of the temperature span
and the temperature level.
Procedure to change temperature scale mode
1. Push the centre of the navigation pad.
2. On the toolbar, select Temperature scale .
3. On the toolbar, select one of the following:
• Auto
• Manual .
4. To change the temperature span and the temperature level in Manual mode, do the
following:
• Push the navigation pad left/right to select (highlight) the maximum and/or
minimum temperature.
• Push the navigation pad up/down to change the value of the highlighted
temperature.
H. Setting the emissivity
To measure temperatures accurately, the emissivity of the surface must be selected
properly.
The user can choose between the following surface properties: • Matt. • Semi-matt. •
Semi-glossy
Procedure:
1. Push the centre of the navigation pad.
2. On the toolbar, select Settings .
3. In the dialog box, select Measurement parameters.
4. In the dialog box, select Emissivity.
5. In the dialog box, select one of the following: • Matt. • Semi-matt. • Semi-glossy
I. Changing the reflected apparent temperature
This parameter is used to compensate for the radiation reflected by the object. If the
emissivity is low and the object temperature significantly different from that of the
reflected temperature, it will be important to set and compensate for the reflected
apparent temperature correctly.
