Completely read through the operating instructions, the „Warranty and Additional Information” booklet as well as the latest information under the internet link at the end of these instructions. Follow the instructions they contain. This document must be kept in a safe place and passed on together with the device.

Function / Application

The ThermoCamera Connect is used to visually display thermal patterns and enables non-contact measurement of surfaces by evaluating the radiation in the infrared wavelength range via the integrated non-chilled microbolometer. The imaging technology of the sensor provides a visual image of the temperatures surrounding the inspected object. The temperature differences can be visualised by colour-coding the individual temperatures in a thermogram with false colour display. Possible applications include locating overloads in electrical components, detecting overheating in mechanical components, pinpointing and analysing heating lines in walls and floors, assessing refrigerant and air conditioning systems and much more.

5.7 Settings: WLAN connection

To evaluate the data, the ThermoCamera Connect can be connected via WLAN to a terminal device (desktop PC or mobile phone) with WLAN capabilities. For this purpose first select the required WLAN SSID on the device (MAC:MMMMMM). MMMMMM corresponds to the MAC address.

The connection with the corresponding SSID is then set up at the terminal device. With any modern browser the ThermoCamera Connect makes the data available under the IP-address 192.168.230.1 Port 80.

6.0 Emissivity

Before each use, check the settings for infrared measurement and adjust them to the respective measuring situation to ensure accurate measurements. Pay particular attention to the general parameters for the emissivity coefficient.

6.1 Emissivity: Emissivity coefficient

The level of infrared emissions given off by everything depends on the specific material and surface. This factor is determined by the emissivity coefficient (0.10 ... 1.0). For accurate measurements, it is absolutely essential that the emissivity coefficient is set first. The emissivity coefficient can either be custom set or selected based on the predefined emissivity coefficients from the material list.
