Camera Control
From the Video Menu, most functions that are available from the JCU are also available on the MFD.
For M-Series cameras that have both thermal and visible (lowlight or color) video, the IR/Visible button
can toggle between the video sources. The Change Colors button works like the Color button on the
JCU, and the Change Scene button works like the Scene button on the JCU. To access the camera’s
on-screen menu, select Video Setup, then Next Page twice to get to the FLIR Menu button.
