• Ifyouhavequestionswhichremainunanswered by these operating instructions, contact our technical support service or other technical personnel. b) LiPo batteries

• The rechargeable battery is permanently built into the product and cannot be replaced.

• Never damage the rechargeable battery. Damaging the casing of the rechargeable batterymightcauseanexplosionorare!Unlike conventional batteries/rechargeable batteries (e.g. AA or AAA type), the casing of the LiPo rechargeable battery does not consist of a thin sheetbutratherasensitiveplasticlmonly.

• Never short-circuit the contacts of the rechargeable battery. Do not throw the battery ortheproductintore.Thereisadangerofre andexplosion!

• Charge the rechargeable battery regularly, even if you do are not using the product. Due to the rechargeable battery technology being used, you do not need to discharge the rechargeable batteryrst.

• Never charge the rechargeable battery of the product unattended.

• When charging, place the product on a surface that is not heat-sensitive. It is normal that a certain amount of heat is generated during charging!

a) Charge the battery

• Liftthecoverapmarked to access the micro USB port (7).

• Using the included cable, connect one end to the micro USB port and the other end to a suitable USB-A power source.

• The LED charging indicator (6) and the display (1) will show the battery status. Charging (red)/fully charged (green) b) MicroSD

• Lift the cover ap marked to access the microSD card slot (9).

• Insert the card in the direction shown on the cover. It should “click” into place.

• Replacethecover. You may need to restart the device for the SD card to register. When using an SD card thersttimepleaseformatit.Forfurtherde- tails see sections 11. e) “Settings”, “Format SD” and 16. “Technical data”.

a) Power on/off Press and hold the power button (10) to turn the power on or off. b) Temperature calibration The inherent temperature drift of the thermal sensor can affect the accuracy of measurements. To calibrate the sensor, turn the power on (10) then presstheleftbutton◄(3). The display will show “calibrating” to indicate that the temperature has been calibrated. 39c) Set the emissivity value For accurate temperature readings, it is important to select an emissivity value to match the emissivity of the surface being measured. See section 11. e) “Settings”, “Emissivity” for how to change emissivity values. See section 13. “Emissivity” for a list of values for common objects. d) Capture screen image Press the photo button (11) to capture the image and data shown on the display (1).

• Presstheright►button(5) to save the image.

• Presstheleft◄button(3) to discard the image It is recommended not to store more than 5000 images as this may affect the image storage speed.

Menu Settings a) Temperature unit selection Navigate to the temperature unit selection (D) menu , then choose °C or °F units of measurement. b) Center point position and high/low temperature tracking Navigate to the temperature tracking options (E) menu . You can activate one or both options at the same time.

• Center point : The target in the middle of the screen is where the temperature is being measured. The value is shown at the top left of the display.

• High/low temperature tracking : The highest and lowest temperature values on the screen are marked by dynamic indicators: [H] High, [L] Low The bar on the right shows high/low values and the corresponding colour. 41c) Colour palette selection

• Navigate to the colour palette selection (F) menu , then select between iron red, rainbow, and grey.

• If the colour palette does not change, check that you have not activated “fast thermal tracking” (see below). Fast thermal tracking visually increases the contrast between high and low temperatures. From themainpage,presstheright►button(5) to toggle between the selected colour palette and “fast thermal tracking”. 42d) View saved images/image data Navigate to the view saved images (G) menu ,thenscrollleft◄/right►tofindthedesiredimage.

When using the thermal camera, always consider the emissivity of what you are looking at. Emissivity is a measure of how well an object radiates the heat, which affects how accurate the temperature measurementreectedoffthatobjectis.
