In the case with a standard camera are the following:

o
Two rechargeable battery packs.

o
USB Data lead.
Customer configured cameras will only be accompanied by the items specified
with the order.
•
The rechargeable batteries should be fully charged before use (see section 3).
Fit the battery into the compartment on the top of the camera and push down
until a click is heard. To remove the battery, press the battery release button
and the battery will eject and can be removed.
•
Turn on the camera using the middle red button on the rear. A red light will be
illuminated to show the camera is powered.
•
A short (1 second) button press will blank out the display, a 3 second press will
bring up the on screen menu while a long (8 second) press will go through the
menu and turn off the camera.
•
After switch-on and for approximately 5 seconds, a start-up screen will be
displayed on the camera screen while the system performs a self-test routine.
This start-up screen is end-user configurable.
•
The thermal image, with battery status display, time and date, spot temperature
and spot target markings, will appear.
•
While the Argus
®
F-Type is in operation, the camera has to recalibrate to
maintain its performance and image quality. This is achieved by an internal
shutter that “freezes” the image; this in turn allows the electronics to recalibrate
and redisplay the image. This recalibration will only occur when necessary due
to a change in scene or internal temperatures. The freezing of the image will last
for less than 0.2 seconds.
•
The Argus
®
F-Type camera can be used with or without the handle. To remove
the handle, spin the large thumbwheel anti-clockwise until the handle detaches
from the camera body. Refitting is the reverse of this, making sure that the
locating pip is positioned correctly.
