6.3.5. Using a Measurement to Compensate for Environmental Factors
As explained in § 3.2 , three environmental factors can influence the accuracy of thermograms: ambient
temperature, the distance to the target, and the ambient relative humidity. If not compensated for, these factors
can introduce inaccuracies into the camera’s measurements.
You can use a measurement from a connected device as an “influence” to
compensate for an environmental factor. The measurement will be used to
calculate the amount of correction that needs to be applied. Note that this
option is available only for temperature, humidity, and distance measurements.
For the measurement to be used as a compensation factor:
1. Select the measurement in the Measurements menu.
2. If the measurement is temperature, humidity, or distance, you can
select the option Influence by pressing the right button. (For other
types of measurements, this option is not available.)
3. Press F2 to save.
Only one measurement per type can be selected as an influence. If a measurement of the same type is already
assigned this setting, its use is changed to Displayed and the new measurement becomes the Influence.
The measurements replace the user data entered in the Target menu (shown to
the left), provided that the Influence setting is User (see
§ 3.2.2 ).
If a Bluetooth measurement is used as an influence, the corresponding
influence value in the Target menu displays the value "Bluetooth.”
The value actually applied is displayed on the main screen, in the list of
Bluetooth measurements (with the index letter "i" after the measurement
number).
Ensure all measurements designated as “Influence” are consistent with the uses to which they will be
applied.
