Press the CAL (5) button to calibrate. The image will freeze for 1-2
seconds.
Calibration is completed.
Automatic calibration mode
With the automatic calibration mode the thermal imager calibrates by
itself according to the software algorythm. The detector
(microbolometer) is closed with the shutter automatically. User assisted
calibration with the CAL (5) button is allowed in this mode.
