With the help of an optomechanic assembly, the following functions are implemented:
■ Focus (motor focus)
■ Measuring range switch-over (apertures)*
■ Internal NUC (Non-Uniformity Correction) with shutter
Furthermore, this assembly optionally comprises a module for hardware-based increase of the geometric
resolution of the thermography system to (2.048 x 1.536) IR pixels (detector with [1.024 x 768] pixels) and
(1.280 x 960) IR pixels (detector with [640 x 480] pixels) in “Resolution Enhancement”* mode.

Optionally,
■ an external 15 V wall plug transformer (accessories)* or
■ a rechargeable lithium-ion battery 7.2 V (accessories)
can be used to supply the VarioCAM
®
HD with power.
The wall plug transformer is connected to the 14-pin (right-hand side) LEMO socket on the backside of
the housing. The rechargeable battery is inserted vertically into the designated position on the backside of
