• Active gyro-stabilization
• Radar integration to follow specific radar targets (NMEA 0183 serial communications)
• Dual, independent H.264 network video streams
• HD-SDI (Serial data interface)
• Analog video
The thermal camera, HD visible-light camera, and high intensity LED spotlight are aligned to view
or illuminate a target for quick identification providing enhanced navigational abilities in a variety of
conditions.
432-0012-00-10 Version 100 December 2015 9
System Description
M400 Components:
• Main camera body, also known as the pan/tilt camera unit
• Joystick Control Unit (JCU II), compatible with the MU, MV, and M400 camera systems
• Ethernet switch with power over Ethernet (PoE) to power the JCU II and network to the camera
• Analog and/or digital video monitors (customer supplied)
• Personal computer (PC) to control and configure the system (customer supplied)
The M400 camera body and JCU II are network devices. In some installations, additional M400
cameras and/or additional JCU II may also be used.
The camera body’s pan/tilt mechanism allows the operator to rotate 360° in azimuth, tilt +/– 90° in
elevation. The camera body houses the two cameras and the LED spotlight.
The JCU II is the primary control for the camera. The JCU II is used to wake the system or put it in
standby, select the active camera, operate the pan and tilt movement of the camera, zoom the
active camera, control the M400 modes and features, and configure the system settings by means
of OSD menus.
The JCU II has various buttons, an LCD display, and the joystick. The joystick can be moved left
and right or forward and back, and rotated in either direction. “M400 Joystick Control Unit” on
page 16 describes the functions of the JCU II in detail.
The M400 uses on-screen icons to indicate the camera position (azimuth and elevation) and
various system settings that have been enabled. These symbols are introduced in “Thermal Video
Display” on page 11 and are further explained throughout this manual in the discussion of related
functions.
Multiple Cameras, Joysticks, and Other Devices:
More than one JCU II can be used to control the camera, and more than one display can be used
to view the video. A personal computer (PC) on the same network as the camera, can use a web
browser to view video, control, and configure the system. The camera’s web server uses password
protected accounts to control access to camera functions. Using a PC is described in “IP Interface
and PC Operations” on page 30.
Also, a single JCU II can be used to select and control more than one camera. In this case, a
menu on the JCU II lists available cameras. In the LCD display of the JCU II, the name of the
currently selected camera is displayed. When more than one JCU II is installed in the network, a
camera will respond to commands from any JCU II that has the camera selected.
Typically, a JCU II and a video monitor are mounted in close physical proximity, as a pair, so you
can immediately see the changes on the video screen when you use the JCU II to change the
camera position (pan or tilt).
Contact FLIR Systems, Inc. for more information regarding available accessories including PoE
equipment, video distribution amplifiers, cables, connectors, mounting hardware, etc. Contact
information is listed on the back of this manual.

Figure 1-2: On-screen Icons
Thermal Video Display
The infrared (IR) imaging thermal camera relies on the fact that all objects, even very cold objects
like ice, emit thermal energy in the portion of the infrared spectrum that the camera can see.
Therefore, unlike an illuminated infrared camera, the thermal imaging camera does not need an
additional active illumination source and images are based on directly radiated energy rather than
reflected energy.
When the thermal camera is in white-hot mode, the warm objects in the scene are shown as white,
or lighter shades of gray, and cold objects are shown as black or darker shades of gray. When the
video polarity is switched, this is reversed.
This is why hot objects such as parts on a running outboard motor appear white (or black or red
depending on the video image mode selected), while the water or other cold objects appear dark
(or cool). Scenes with familiar objects will be easy to interpret with some experience. The camera
automatically optimizes the image to provide the best contrast in most conditions.
FLIR Systems, Inc. offers a comprehensive selection of training courses to help you to get the best
performance and value from your thermal camera. Find out more at the FLIR training Web page:
http://www.flir.com/training
Video Screen Icons
Depending on the system settings, various symbols are shown on the screen. Some of these icons
are always shown on the screen, and some appear momentarily or only when certain functions are
enabled or executed. The icons can be shown as white or red. See “Display icons:” on page 24 for
a description of menu options and the displayed icons.
The following figures illustrate some of the icons displayed by the system, as well as an example
of the OSD menu that is shown when the Menu button is pressed. Using the menus is described in
“M400 System Configuration” on page 20.
A complete list of all of the icons used in the system and a brief description of how they are used
can be found in “List of Icons” on page 54.

The azimuth position indicator shows the direction the camera is
pointing relative to the vessel. The shaded triangle shows the
approximate camera field of view (FOV).
The elevation position indicator shows the vertical tilt of the
camera above or below the horizontal plane of the vessel.
Scene type icons
The Scene button on the JCU II cycles through four preset
automatic gain control (AGC) settings, which change the image
brightness and contrast settings. Regardless of the scene setting,
the thermal camera automatically adjusts to the scene to provide a
balanced, high-quality image. However, you may prefer an image
that has more or less contrast than the default one provided, and
the Scene button provides that type of fine adjustment.
Active Camera Icons
At any given time, either the thermal camera (IR) or the HD
visible-light camera is designated as the Active camera. The Active
camera responds to commands such as zoom or focus that could
apply to either camera. Pressing the CAMERA button on the
JCU II toggles the active camera between the thermal camera and
the HD visible-light camera.
On-Screen-Display (OSD) Menu
The OSD menu appears when the Menu button on the JCU II is pressed. Menu entries are
selected using the joystick and the joystick buttons. Pressing the Menu button again removes the
menu from the screen. The OSD menu can also be accessed from a networked PC through the
Web Browser Interface. Refer to “Function Keys” on page 35.

M400 System Startup
System Startup and Shutdown
The M400 camera does not have an on/off switch. Instead, its power state is controlled by the
JCU II. Generally, the camera is never completely off but in a Park mode or standby state waiting
for a “wake” command from the JCU II.
Typically, the M400 system is connected to power through a circuit breaker, which functions as the
primary on/off switch for the system. Should it be necessary for some reason to completely shut
down the system, the circuit breaker is used. In normal operation, however, the camera will have
power and will be in one of four states or modes:
• Bootup, or powering on
• Powered on and fully functional
• Park mode, powered on with video turned off
• Standby, a low-power state waiting for a wake command
Park Mode
When the system is in Park mode, the camera does not generate a live video signal. After the
bootup is complete or when done using the system, Park the camera from the OSD menu to keep
the system ready to use at a moments notice.
The Bootup Process
The bootup process is slightly different depending on whether the system had been completely
turned off or is being wakened from a standby state. Most of what happens, however, is the same.
Powering the Camera
During bootup, a series of screens are shown as various components are activated. How the
screen looks will vary depending on the particular configuration settings of your installation. In
general, the following sequence occurs:
1. If starting from a full shutdown, make sure the monitor is turned on, then power on the system.
2. The FLIR splash screen is shown, then live video with a counter showing boot progress.
3. When the bootup is complete (about 4 minutes), the monitor shows icons, live video, and the
OSD menus are enabled.

Powering the JCU II
When the JCU II is receiving power, the Power button will
be lit amber. When the button is pressed for
approximately three seconds, the JCU II will turn on and
search for cameras on the network.
On the LCD screen, Starting, then Searching… is
shown. When a camera is found, the message changes
to Connecting…, which continues to flash until the
connection process completes and is replaced by the
camera ID, such as M400. When more than one camera
is found on the network, the JCU II attempts to reconnect
to the last camera it was connected to, or if it has not
connected to a camera, it will prompt the user to select a
camera.
Important: Fully establishing a connection may take up to three minutes. Please be patient while
the system verifies each component.
432-0012-00-10 Version 100 December 2015 14
JCU II Power Menu
JCU II Power Menu
The JCU II LCD screen generally shows the ID of the camera that is connected to the JCU II. The
various functions are accessed from a set of menus, with each menu entry selectable in the JCU II
display. When powered on and connected to a camera, pressing and holding the Power button
causes the JCU II to enter the Power Menu.
Use the JCU II joystick to scroll up and down within the menus
(push fore and aft), and select an entry by clicking the left
joystick button. When the JCU II is in the Power Menu mode,
the other JCU II buttons are disabled.
In the JCU II display, a down arrow (v) indicates you can access
additional menu choices by moving the joystick down. An up
arrow (^) indicates the last menu entry is displayed, and the
other choices must be accessed by moving the joystick up. A
double arrow indicates you can move up or down in the menu.
The Power Menu shows the following menu options:
Assign JCU?
JCU Stndby?
Camera Stndby?
System Stndby?
Global Stndby?
Calibrate JCU?
Cancel
Standby States
After you are done with the camera you can Park the camera from the OSD menu keeping the
system ready to use at a moments notice on a command from the JCU II. When the system is in
Park mode, the camera does not generate a live video signal.
To initiate other standby modes, press and hold the Power button. After a brief countdown, the
Power Menu is shown. Scroll down with the joystick, press the left joystick button to select an
option from the menu. The menu options available will reflect the available hardware on the
camera network.
• JCU Stndby?—select to power down the JCU II.
• Camera Stndby?—select to power down the camera, leaving the JCU II powered
to connect to a different camera.
• System Stndby?—select to power down the camera and the JCU II.
• Global Stndby?—select to power down all the cameras and all the JCU IIs present on the
network.
Troubleshooting Tip: If the JCU II does not have power, it may be connected to a Power over
Ethernet (PoE) switch that has not been powered on, or it may be connected to a network switch
that does not provide PoE power.
Troubleshooting Tip: If this is the first time the JCU II has been used to connect to the camera, or
if the camera was not powered before the JCU II, v Select Camera is shown on the LCD
screen. Scroll down with the joystick to select a camera to control. When the ID of the camera
appears, press the left joystick button to select it. The camera ID will blink momentarily to indicate
it has been selected.

M400 Joystick Control Unit
Introduction
The Joystick Control Unit (JCU II) is the primary method of
controlling the M400 camera. Use it to move the camera, zoom the
camera, switch between infrared and visible-light cameras, adjust
the image settings, and access the on-screen menus.
This chapter describes how to use the JCU II buttons to operate the
camera features. Some of these features vary depending on the
specific way the system has been configured.
When specific settings affect a particular button, refer to the various
configuration settings and how they affect operation in Chapter 4,
"M400 System Configuration," on page 20.
Enabling different system modes can affect how the buttons work.
Table 3.1 on page 19 summarizes the actions for each button.
JCU II Buttons
All of the buttons on the JCU II perform multiple functions. In most cases, each performs one
function when it is pressed briefly (short press) and a different function when it is pressed and held
(long press). The descriptions of the buttons in this section assume that the JCU II is powered on
(not in standby).
Power Button
Short Press—When the JCU II is powered on, a short
press of the Power button cycles through the four levels of
brightness (including off) for the JCU II display. The JCU II
controls are back lit to make them easier to see at night.
Use this button to adjust the brightness of the back lighting.
Long Press—When the JCU II is in standby, pressing and
holding the Power button is used to “wake up” the camera.
When the JCU II is powered on, it is used to access the
JCU II Power Menu to perform functions such as selecting
another camera or placing the system in standby. Refer to
“JCU II Power Menu” on page 15.
Menu Button
Press the Menu button to access the system on-screendisplay (OSD) menus. In most cases, there is no need to
modify the factory default configuration settings of the
system. Refer to “M400 System Configuration” on page 20.

the camera will display on the JCU II screen.
JCU II Joystick
The JCU II joystick and can be moved left or right, forward and
back, and twisted in either direction. The joystick movement is
translated to control the pan/tilt position of the camera and the
zoom setting.
Note: The joystick uses proportional control; therefore, the
farther it is rotated or directed from center, the faster the
camera will move.
Tilting the Camera
The camera has two tilt modes: Gaming and Pilot. When in Gaming mode (the default), moving
the joystick forward causes the camera to tilt up; moving the joystick back causes the camera to tilt
down.
