Safety
Read this manual carefully before starting or using the
device. Always store the manual in the immediate vicinity
of the device or its site of use!
Warning
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may
result in electric shock, fire and/ or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
This appliance can be used by children aged from
8years and above and persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience
and knowledge if they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe
way and understand the hazards involved.
Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and
user maintenance shall not be made by children
without supervision.
• Do not use the device in potentially explosive rooms.
• Do not use the device in aggressive atmosphere.
• Do not immerse the device in water. Do not allow liquids to
penetrate into the device.
• The device may only be used in dry surroundings and must
not be used in the rain or at a relative humidity exceeding
the operating conditions.

• Avoid looking directly into the laser beam.
• Never point the laser beam at people or animals.
• Observe the storage and operating conditions as given in
the Technical data chapter.
Intended use
Only use the device for visual or thermographic representation
of objects whilst adhering to the technical data.
To use the device for its intended use, only use accessories and

Never point the laser beam at people, animals or
reflective surfaces. Even brief eye contact can lead to
eye damage.
Examining the laser output aperture by use of optical
instruments (e.g. magnifying glass, magnifiers and the
like) entails the risk of eye damage.
When working with a laser of class2, observe the
national regulations on wearing eye protection.

Device description
The thermal camera XC300/ XC600 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.
Furthermore, you can superimpose IR and digital images (IR
DuoVisionPlus) and adjust the associated intensity (IR
DuoVision) in order to obtain a higher-contrast thermal image.
For a measured result which is as precise as possible the
ambient temperature, reflected temperature, relative humidity,
distance and emissivity can be entered.
An integrated distance meter allows you to determine distances
to the measuring object precisely and automatically if required.
The autofocus function permits automatic focussing of the
desired measuring object.
A list of emissivities for various surfaces is provided in the
chapter Emissivity. For a precise evaluation, the thermal image
on the screen can be frozen or stored in the internal device
memory. The saved images can later be viewed either directly
on the camera screen or on a PC using an analysis software.
To edit the images, you can download the IR-Report2.XSTD
software from the download (or service) section of
www.trotec.com.
