Screening alarm
21
21.1 General
The screening alarm can be used, for example, at airports to detect passengers with ele-
vated body temperatures, which may indicate the presence of a fever.
The screening alarm can also be used to detect temperature anomalies in a series of in-
spected objects in a similar/fixed setup.
Activating the screening mode will turn on a measurement box and screening data in the
result table.
The sampled average temperature.
The alarm temperature.
The measured temperature.
The alarm will trigger when the measurement box measures a temperature higher than the
alarm temperature. The alarm temperature is, in turn, the sum of a specified allowed devia-
tion and a sampled average value.
WARNING
