Annotating images
19
19.1 General
You can save additional information together with an infrared image by using annotations.
Annotations make reporting and post-processing more efficient, by providing essential
information about the image, e.g., conditions and information about where an image is
taken.
Annotations are added to the image file, and can be viewed and edited in the image ar-
chive, and also when moving files from the camera to reporting software on the computer.
• You can set the camera to display annotation tools before an image is saved. Select
(Settings) > Save options > Add annotation after saving.
• You can also add annotations to a saved image in the image archive.
Note
This section describes the procedures for adding annotations to a saved image in the image archive.
Adding annotations before saving an image works in a similar way.
19.2 Adding a note
19.2.1 General
A text note is grouped with the image file. Using this feature, you can annotate images by
entering free-form text.
19.2.2 Procedure
Follow this procedure:
1. Open the image in the image archive.
2. Push the joystick. This displays a context menu.
3. Select
(Add note).
4. Push the joystick. This displays a soft keyboard where you can enter the text you
want to save.
Note
To select special characters, press and hold down the corresponding key on the soft keyboard.
5. When completed, touch Done on the soft keyboard.
19.3 Adding a table
19.3.1 General
You can save a table with textual information to the image file. This feature is a very effi-
cient way of recording information when you are inspecting a large number of similar ob-
jects. The idea behind using a table with textual information is to avoid filling out forms or
inspection protocols manually.
