The figure above shows the two ways to navigate
the menu system in the camera:
• Using the index finger or a stylus pen specially
designed for capacitive touch usage to navigate the
menu system (left).
• Using the joystick to navigate the menu system
(right).
You can also use a combination of the two. In quick
start it is assumed that the joystick is used, but most
tasks can also be carried out using the index finger
or a stylus pen.

at the same time. By your choice of image mode, you
select which type of image to display on the screen.
The camera supports the following image modes:
• Thermal MSX (Multi Spectral Dynamic Imaging):
The camera displays infrared images where the
edges of the objects are enhanced with visual
image details.
• Thermal: A full infrared image is displayed.
• Picture in picture: An infrared image frame is
displayed on top of the visual image.
• Digital camera: The visual image captured by the
digital camera is displayed.
1. Push the joystick to display the menu system.
2. Use the joystick to go to (Image mode).
3. Push the joystick to display a submenu.
4. Use the joystick to go to one of the image modes:

• (Thermal)
• (Picture in picture)
• (Digital camera)
5. Push the joystick confirm.
6. If Picture in picture mode is selected, you can at
this point move and resize the image frame using
the touch screen.
Measurement Tools
To measure a temperature, you can use one or more
measurement tools, e.g., a spotmeter or a box.

Note
• This procedure assumes that you have previously
laid out a measurement tool or user preset on the
screen.
• You can also move and resize the measurement
tool by touching the screen.
1. To select the measurement tool, touch the tool on
the screen. The tool is now displayed with one or
more handles.
