If needed, fully charge the battery pack before operation.See Battery Charging on page 64 for
battery pack charging instructions.
• Startup - To turn the Thermal Imager ON, press and hold the Power button until the
introductory screen displays, then release. The Thermal Imager is ready for use, however to
ensure optimal measurement accuracy, it is recommended to allow the Thermal Imager to
“warm-up” a minimum of 5 minutes before operation.
After the Power button is pressed, an audible tone is sounded upon startup.
After the introductory screen fades, the Thermal Imager switches into Live mode. When in
Live mode the device is in live capture mode, and allows you to make thermal measurements
and capture still images and video in various modes of visible light, and thermal views. See
Basic Operation (Live Mode) on page 9.
Onscreen Navigational Tips are provided for select menu navigation procedures. Each tip will
appear only once after turning on the Thermal Imager. Navigational Tips can be enabled or
disabled, see Navigation Tips on page 26.
• Shutdown - To turn Thermal Imager OFF, press and hold the Power button for a minimum of
2 seconds until the Thermal Imager turns off.
i Opacity and view settings are saved when the thermal imager is turned off, allowing you to resume
operation with the same setting you last used.
• Emergency Shutdown - In the event the control buttons have no response, or the unit cannot
be turned off using the normal shutdown method, press and hold the Power button
(approximately 7 seconds) until the Thermal Imager turns off.
