Operation

Gain mode area:
• Auto gain mode: Select to make the camera automatically switch between the high-
sensitivity range and the low-sensitivity range, depending on the scene temperature.
The temperature level at which the camera switches between the two modes is 150°C
(302°F).
• Low gain mode: Select to make the camera operate in the low-sensitivity range only.
This has the advantage that the camera does not perform a non-uniformity correction
(NUC) when an object with a temperature higher than 150°C (302°F) enters the scene.
However, the disadvantage is lower sensitivity and a higher level of signal noise.
Temperature unit area: To select a different temperature unit, click Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Thermal indication area:
• Digital readout only: Select to display the thermal information in the image as the tem-
perature of the spotmeter only. In modes with automatic heat colorization, the coloriza-
tion of the image will remain but the static heat color reference icon will not be
displayed.
• Reference bar: In modes with automatic heat indication colorization, a vertical heat col-
or reference bar is displayed in the thermal indication area. This static icon shows how
heat colors are applied to the range of the camera mode. The colors yellow, orange,
and red correspond to a temperature-dependent change in hue as the temperature
increases.
• Temp bar: Select to display the thermal information in the image as a temperature bar,
similar to a thermometer. This displays a dynamic vertical temperature bar on the right-
hand side of the image. The top of the dynamic bar represents the temperature of the
measured spot. In modes with automatic heat colorization, the colorization of the image
will remain, with a static heat color reference bar displayed next to the temperature bar.
Add custom boot image area: To select an image of your choice to appear during start-up,
click Browse, and navigate to the image file. This is useful for, for example, identifying your
fire department’s cameras. By incorporating your fire department’s logo, and a unique
identity number in the image, you can keep track of your cameras. This image can also be
accessed from the camera menu.
