Parameter Sub-menu
Emissivity
Emissivity varies with different target subject material, surface temperature,
surface roughness, measurement angle, etc. Press or once to
change Emissivity by 0.01. Long press
or will change Emissivity
in 0.1 intervals.
Distance
This value can be omitted if target subject is close to device (less than
10m). Otherwise, set Distance value accordingly to get more accurate
temperature reading. Press
or once to change Distance 0.1m.
Long press or will change Distance in 1m interval.
Humidity
This value can be omitted if target is close to device (less than 10m).
Otherwise, set Humidity value according to environmental condition. Press
or once to change Humidity 1%. Long press or will
change Humidity in 10% interval.
Adjust Ratio
Due to long time usag
e, the sensitivity of IR detector may decrease. In
such case, it is necessary to adjust ratio value to get more accurate
27
temperature reading. During calibration, if temperature reading is higher
than actual target temperature, change ratio value lower, and vise versa.
Press
or once to change ratio value by 0.01. Long press or
will change ratio value by 0.1 intervals.
Adjust Temp
Und
er certain c
ondition, it is necessary to adjust temperature reading by a
pre-define value. Normally this option should be left unchanged. Press
or
once to change by 0.1OC. Long press or will change this
value by 1

2.2 Measuring Temperature Zone
The functional options in measuring area are shown below:
The measurement objects can analyze the thermal images by the
following three kinds of analysis methods: point, line, and ar ea.
Line measurement analysis has three types: arbitrary l ine, horizo ntal
line, vertical line but multiple-line analysis is also av ailable.
Area measurement analysis has below: rectangular, elliptical and
polygonal analysis.
The system can analyze up to 20 spots objects, 10 lines analysis
object, 20 area analysis objects, 10 polygonal objects and 10
elliptical objects simultaneously.
2.2.1 Select Measured Objects
The prior sequence of object selection is point, line, and area.
● When two or more objects are simultaneously selected, the system
can operate in accordance with the above prioritization.
e.g.: if both a point object and a line object are simultaneously
selected, the point is more prior than line, the point object will be prior
selected;
If both an area object and a line object are simultaneously selected,
the line is more prior than the area; the line object will be prior
selected.
15
● If two or more areas are simultaneously selected, the smaller area will
prevail.
e.g.: If Rectangle 1 and Rectangle 2 are simultaneously selected,
Rectangle 1 is smaller than Rectangle 2, Rectangle 1 will prevail.
