432-0003-00-10 Rev 150 — M-Series Operator’s Manual 7
M-Series Overview
Caution: The M-Series requires a power supply of 12 – 24V DC nominal, 5 Amp
maximum. Absolute voltage range: 10 – 32V DC. Operating the camera outside of
the specified input voltage range or the specified operating temperature range
can cause permanent damage.
Proper Disposal of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE): The European
Union (EU) has enacted Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive
2002/96/EC (WEEE), which aims to prevent EEE waste from arising, to
encourage reuse, recycling, and recovery of EEE waste, and to promote
environmental responsibility.
In accordance with these regulations, all EEE products labeled with the “crossed
out wheeled bin” either on the product itself or in the product literature must not be
disposed of in regular rubbish bins, mixed with regular household or other
commercial waste, or by other regular municipal waste collection means. Instead,
and in order to prevent possible harm to the environment or human health, all
EEE products (including any cables that came with the product) should be
responsibly discarded or recycled.
To identify a responsible disposal method where you live, please contact your
local waste collection or recycling service, your original place of purchase or
product supplier, or the responsible government authority in your area. Business
users should contact their supplier or refer to their purchase contract.
System Description
M-Series is a maritime thermal imaging system for use on most types of vessels.
The system is available in two configurations:
• The single payload models have a single thermal imaging camera.
• The dual payload models are equipped with both a thermal imaging camera
and a visible-light (DLTV) camera, either low-light or color.
The infrared (IR) thermal camera provides night-time imagery, even in total
darkness, based on temperature differences. The thermal camera provides a
clear video image even under completely dark conditions because it is sensitive
to thermal infrared energy. The infrared camera supports either 2X or both 2X and
4X zoom, depending on the model.
On dual payload models, the two integrated DLTV camera options provide either
black and white imagery in low-light conditions or color imagery. The DLTV
cameras provide enhanced navigational abilities in a variety of conditions, for
example, during twilight hours or when operating along intercoastal waterways
and near harbor entrances. The color camera dual payload model supports
continuous zoom.
