Description

The TI2500 Series combines a powerful advanced thermal imaging device in a compact fixed-mount environmental enclosure.

The TI2500 Series cameras support serial communication for control of camera focus and other features. The serial protocol is user-configurable using a DIP switch on the camera assembly. Also, the cameras are preconfigured to support either RS-232 or RS-422 protocols.

The TI2535 camera features a focal length of 35 mm, providing a short to medium field of view of 20 degrees and is well suited for short range threat detection in all circumstances. Utilizing a 50 mm lens, the TI2550 serves as a medium- to long-range surveillance camera and provides a 14 degree horizontal field of view. This focal length is widely deployed because it provides an even balance between situational awareness and detailed perspective.

Setup

Before configuring the camera settings or installing the unit, you must remove the camera assembly from the enclosure to set up the basic wiring configurations (refer to Bench Setup on page 9).

The camera can either be configured on a bench using a PC in a lab environment, or using a laptop in the field. The setup instructions vary slightly depending upon the type of configuration you choose.

WARNINGS:

• During setup, keep the lens cover on the camera to avoid scratching the lens.

• Do not expose the camera to direct sun for extended periods without the sun shield installed.
