Performance Series Thermal Imagers Micro SD Memory Card Micro SD Memory Card Temperature Measurement To eject a Micro SD memory card, push in on the exposed edge of the card and then release. The card should pop partially out after you release it. Carefully pull the card out of the slot. All objects radiate infrared energy. The quantity of energy radiated is based on the actual surface temperature and the surface emissivity of the object.
TiS10, TiS20, TiS40, TiS45, TiS50, TiS55, TiS60, TiS65 Users Manual Menus The menus are the access points for thermal image display, camera features, memory setup, and settings for date, time, language, units, file format, and Imager information. Measurement Menu 8. Push: • 1 to set the change and go back to the live view. • 2 or Y to set the change and go back to the previous menu. • 3 to cancel the change and go back to the live view.
Performance Series Thermal Imagers Menus Level for Manual Operation Mode Temperature Span for Manual Operation Mode When put into manual ranging, the level setting moves the thermal span up or down within the total temperature range. See Figure 2. In the live manual mode, the arrow buttons are always available to adjust the level and span. When in manual mode, the span setting contracts or expands in a selected palette in a temperature range within the total range. See Figure 2.
TiS10, TiS20, TiS40, TiS45, TiS50, TiS55, TiS60, TiS65 Users Manual Emissivity Adjustment The correct emissivity values are important for the Imager to make the most accurate temperature measurement calculations. Emissivity of a surface can have a large effect on the apparent temperatures that the Imager observes. Understanding the emissivity of the surface being inspected can, but not always, allow you to obtain more accurate temperature measurements. Note Surfaces with an emissivity of <0.
Performance Series Thermal Imagers Menus Background (Reflected Background Temperature Compensation) Transmission/Transmittance Adjustment (TiS45, TiS55, TiS65 only) Compensation for reflected background temperature is set in the Background tab. Very hot objects or very cold objects can affect the apparent temperature and measurement accuracy of the target or object of interest, especially when surface emissivity is low.
TiS10, TiS20, TiS40, TiS45, TiS50, TiS55, TiS60, TiS65 Users Manual Spot Temperatures The Spot Temperatures are floating HI and LO temperature indicators that move on the display as the temperature measurements of the image fluctuate.
