8.14.2 When to use Lock mode
A typical situation where you would want to use Lock mode is when looking for tempera-
ture anomalies in two items with a similar design or construction.
For example, if you are looking at two cables, where you suspect one is overheated, work-
ing in Lock mode will clearly show that one is overheated. The higher temperature in that
cable would create a lighter color for the higher temperature.
If you use Auto mode instead, the color for the two items will appear the same.
8.14.3 When to use Manual mode
8.14.3.1 Example 1
Here are two infrared images of a building. In the left image, which is auto-adjusted, the
large temperature span between the clear sky and the heated building makes a correct
analysis difficult. You can analyze the building in more detail if you change the temperature
scale to values close to the temperature of the building.

8.14.3.2 Example 2
Here are two infrared images of an isolator in a power line. To make it easier to analyze
the temperature variations in the isolator, the temperature scale in the right image has
been changed to values close to the temperature of the isolator.
