with the Imager or available from Fluke. Fluke does not warrant the use or reliability of aftermarket memory cards of different brands or capacities.

Battery

A Li-ion battery powers the Imager. The Imager includes two batteries for a quick-change during operation.
The battery charges on the 2-bay charging base. The power supply powers the charging base. Country-specific adapters are included.
Before you use the Imager for the first time, charge the battery for a minimum of 2.5 hours. The battery status shows on the five-segment charge indicator.
W Caution
To prevent damage to the battery:
Do not expose battery to heat sources or high­temperature environments such as an unattended vehicle in the sun.
Do not store the battery on the charger for more than 24 hours as reduced battery life may result.
Charge the battery for a two-hour minimum at six-month intervals for maximum battery life. Without use, the battery will self-discharge in approximately six months.
Always operate in the specified temperature range.
Do not incinerate the Product and/or battery.
Remove the Imager from the 12 V vehicle charger before you start or jump start the vehicle.

Power On and Off

To turn on or turn off the Imager, push and hold seconds. The Imager has Power Save and Auto Off features. For more information about how to set these features, see Settings
Menu.
Note
All thermal imagers need sufficient warm-up time for the most accurate temperature measurements and best image quality. This time can often vary by model
www.GlobalTestSupply.com
and by environmental conditions. Although most imagers are fully warmed up in 3-5 minutes, it is always best to wait a minimum of 10 minutes if the most accurate temperature measurement is important to your application. When you move the Imager between environments with large differences in ambient temperature, more adjustment time can be required.
The Imager includes a calibration on-demand feature that causes a calibration event to occur when you press
during operation. This feature provides the best accuracy and avoids disruption of a timing-sensitive image capture by the next automatic calibration.

Controls for Image Capture

The two-part trigger is located in the standard trigger position for a pistol-grip device. The larger, green trigger is the primary trigger. The smaller, black trigger is the secondary trigger.
In normal operation (video is off), the function of the primary trigger is to capture a thermal image for possible storage to memory by the user. When video is on, the primary trigger is the start/stop for video recording.
The secondary trigger operates the laser on supported models.

Laser Pointer

W* Warning
To prevent eye damage and personal injury, do not look into the laser. Do not point the laser directly at persons or animals or indirectly off reflective surfaces.
The laser warning symbol (*) shows in the Header zone of the display when the laser is turned on and you pull the secondary trigger.
The Imager includes a laser pointer. The laser pointer is a sighting aid and is offset from the infrared camera. As a result, it may not always represent the exact center of the infrared or visible image.
The laser dot does not appear on an infrared-only image, but does on visible-only or AutoBlend images. The laser dot cannot be seen in the visible channel of the IR-Fusion image if obscured by the center point marker graphic.
Pull the secondary trigger to turn on laser pointer, release the secondary trigger to turn off the laser pointer.

Temperature Measurement

All objects radiate infrared energy. The quantity of energy radiated is based on the actual surface temperature and the surface emissivity of the object. The Imager senses the infrared energy from the surface of the object and uses this data to calculate an estimated temperature value. Many common objects and materials such as painted metal, wood, water, skin, and cloth are very good at radiating energy and it is easy to get relatively accurate measurements. For surfaces that are good at radiating energy (high emissivity), the emissivity factor is 90 % (or 0.90). This simplification does not work well on shiny surfaces or unpainted metals as they have an emissivity of <0.60. These materials are not good at radiating energy and are classified as low emissivity. To more accurately measure materials with a low emissivity, an emissivity correction is necessary. Adjustment to the emissivity setting will usually allow the Imager to calculate a more accurate estimate of the actual temperature.
W Warning
To prevent personal injury, see emissivity information for actual temperatures. Reflective objects result in lower than actual temperature measurements. These objects pose a burn hazard.

Emissivity Adjustment

The correct emissivity values are important for the Imager to make the most accurate temperature measurement calculations. Emissivity of a surface can have a large effect on the apparent temperatures that the Imager observes. Understanding the emissivity of the surface being inspected can, but not always, allow you to obtain more accurate temperature measurements.
Note
<
Surfaces with an emissivity of consistent determination of actual temperatures problematic. The lower the emissivity, the more potential error is associated with the Imager's temperature measurement calculations. This is also true even when adjustments to the emissivity and reflected background adjustments are performed properly.
Emissivity is set directly as a value, or from a list of emissivity values for some common materials.
If the Display is set to Display All, you see the information about current emissivity as ε = x.xx.

The low-temperature (or dew point) color alarm shows a full visible image and only shows infrared information on objects or areas that are below the set apparent temperature (or set dew point) color alarm level. The user must manually determine and set these parameters.
Note
The Imager does not sense ambient or surface dew point level automatically. To use the low-temperature color alarm function as a dew point color alarm, manual determination and input of surface dew point temperature will yield the best results. Depending on the situation, the colors presented may help identify areas of concern with possible dew point condensation.
