Device description

The thermal camera AC080V creates a visible image depicting infrared radiation which is otherwise invisible to the human eye. The thermal image and temperature are displayed on the screen in real time. To improve the view, you can select various colour palettes for depicting the thermal image. You are also able to automatically find and display the warmest and coolest measuring spot in the measured image. For a measured result which is as precise as possible the ambient temperature, relative humidity, distance and degree of emission can be entered. A list of degrees of emission for various surfaces is provided in chapter Degree of emission. For a precise evaluation, the thermal image on the screen can be recorded and saved on the device. The device control is based on the Android operating system for tablets. The saved images can either be viewed directly on the screen or transferred to a PC with the supplied USB cable. To edit the images, you can download the IR-Report 2.X STD software from the download (or service) section of www.trotec.com.

Device depiction

Note:
Described in this operating manual is only the operation of the IR app for the AC080V. Further functions of the tablet or the Android operating system are not a part of this manual.
Additionally, to create short reports relating to the images, you can use the app IR-Wizard available free of charge. This software is a complimentary bonus that does not belong to the standard scope of delivery and is offered for use without support or warranty. The program interface (only available in selected languages) is generally easily comprehensible and can be used intuitively. Further information regarding the use is provided in the application.
