Operation Instruction
Charging
1. Use a USB cable to connect the thermal camera to the computer to charge.
Note: when charging vAth a computer. the computer should be turned on. and the charging time is longer than
using an adapter.
1. Connect the power adapter and the charging base with a USB cable. and plug the power adapter into the
socket.
2. Take out the battery and place it correctly in the charging base to charge.
Note: When the battery is not placed. the indicator of the charging base flashes: the indicator turns red when the
battery is placed and charging: the indicator becomes green when the battery is fully charged.
Power On/Off
1. In the observation interface, adjust the focus ring till the image is dear. Short press the trigger button to take the
photo. Long press the trigger button to start recording the video and finish recording by releasing the trigger
button.
2. Tap the save button on the screen or click OK to save the *lure. Tap other buttons on the screen or use the
navigation button + OK to make recording annotation. scan the OR code to name the file. or cancel saving
photos.

The pictures you took are saved on the SD card, and you can follow the below steps to view them at any time.
Measurement Mode
In the observation interface. press OK shortly to enter the main menu. and select ‘Measurement Settings” with the
navigation button. Press OK again to enter the secondary menu. select different measurement modes by shifting
left or right on the navigation button. and press OK to save your option.
In the observation interface. click anywhere on the screen to enter the main menu. Then click ‘Measurement
Settings’ to select the desired measurement mode. and make it effective by clicking the screen area.
Measurement Parameters
In the observation interface, press OK to enter the main menu, use the navigation button to select the ‘parameter
setting, then press OK again to enter the secondary menu. Select different temperature measurement parameters
by shifting left or right, and press the enter button to parameterize. After setting. Press OK again to save your
option.
In the observation interface, dick anywhere on the screen to enter the main menu. Click ‘Parameter Setting’ to set
the parameter. After finishing the setting. click the screen area to take effect.
Emissivity: in order to obtain more accurate measurement results, you need to set the emissivity according to
the target to be measured before each instead of using the default configuration. Emissivity refers to the ratio of
the radiant ability of an object to the radiant ability of a blackbody at the same temperature, which is relative to
the reflectivity of the object The lower the emissivity. the higher the proportion of energy being reflected. The
higher the emissivity, the lower the proportion of energy being reflected. For example. the emissivity of human
skin is 0.98. and the emissivity of printed circuit boards is 0.91. For more information on emissivity, you can
refer to the quick start guide in the package or inquire from other sources.
Ambient temperature: the reflection temperature of the object’s surface will affect the measurement result.
especially when the object emissivity is low or the object temperature and the reflection temperature differ
greatly, this effect will increase. So the result needs to be compensated to eliminate influences of the surface
reflection temperature. However, it is usually difficult to determine the reflected temperature of an object. The
ambient temperature can be used to replace the reflected temperature in the actual measurement.
Distance: distances have effects on the measurement results. In order to get accurate distance information of
the object is necessary for the thermal camera to compensate for the result.
Palettes
In the observation interface, short press OK to enter the main menu. and select “palette setting” with the
navigation button. Press OK again to enter the sub-menu. select different palettes by shifting left and right on the
navigation button, and then press the enter button to save your option.
In the observation interface. click anywhere on the touch screen to enter the main menu. Click ‘palette setting’ to
choose a palette and save your option by clicking the screen area.
Image Mode
Thermal Fusion: an image fused to a certain scale between an infrared image and a visible image
PIP: infrared image superimposed at the center of the visible image
Thermal imaging: infrared images
Digital camera: visible images
Note: For better dual-light image effects. when in PIP a thermal fusion modes. you need to set the actual
distance. that is. the approximate distance from the thermal camera to the object. If the preset registration
parameters cannot meet the requirements. you can also manually perform fusion registration in the settings.
Setting Steps
In the observation interface. press OK shortly to enter the main menu. and select ‘image mode” through the
navigation button. Then press OK again to enter the secondary menu. their different image mode can be selected
by shifting left or right on the navigation button. Save your option by pressing the enter button.
In the observation interface. Click any place on the screen to enter the main menu. Click ‘image mode” and select
the desired image mode, and then click on the screen area.
Non-uniformity Correction
Non-uniformity correction is used to compensate for the non-uniformity of detector pixels or non-uniformity caused
by other optical interference. When there is more noise in the image. non-uniformity correction is needed. which is
common when the ambient temperature changes rapidly.
In the imaging interface. long-press the back button or the gallery button to perform non-uniformity correction.
Contrast Adjustment
In the observation interface. the contrast of the infrared image can be adjusted by sliding up and down the arrow
button on the “temperature range’ on the right side of the screen.
Press “A” in the upper right corner of the interface to return to auto-contrast mode.
