In addition to the screening functionality, the FLIR Exx-EST camera has the same ther-
mography functions as the standard FLIR Exx camera. However, the temperature range
of the FLIR Exx-EST camera is limited to 15 to 45°C (59 to 113°F), meaning that the use
of the thermography functions is limited.
14.1
Thermography functions
This section provides a brief description of the thermography functions. For more de-
tailed information, refer to the FLIR Exx user’s manual.
14.1.1
Color palettes
From the
Color
menu, you can change the color palette that the camera uses to display
different temperatures. A different palette can make it easier to analyze an image.
14.1.2
Adjusting the temperature scale
By default, the camera continuously adjusts the image for the best image presentation.
You can also manually adjust the temperature scale to values close to the temperature of
a specific object in the image. This will make it possible to detect smaller temperature
differences.
• In live mode, select
(
Temperature scale
) and then
(
Auto
) or
(
Manual
) to
enter automatic or manual image adjustment mode.
• In preview/edit mode, manual image adjustment mode is active.
In manual mode, you can do one or more of the following:
• To simultaneously change the temperature scale minimum and maximum limits, place
your finger on the screen and move it up/down.
• To change the minimum or the maximum limit, do the following:
1. Touch the maximum or minimum temperature that you want to change.
2. Place your finger on the screen and move it up/down to change the value of the
highlighted temperature.
• To enhance the details of a certain point of interest in the image, touch that point on
the screen. The image will be auto-adjusted based on the thermal content of the area
around the touched point.
14.1.3
Image modes
The camera can capture both thermal and visual images at the same time. By choosing
an image mode from the
Image mode
menu, you select which type of image to display
on the screen.
The camera supports the following image modes:
•
Thermal
: An infrared image is displayed.
•
Thermal MSX
(Multi Spectral Dynamic Imaging): The camera displays an infrared im-
age where the edges of the objects are enhanced with visual image details.
•
Picture in picture
: An infrared image frame is displayed on top of the visual image.
•
Digital camera
: The visual image captured by the digital camera is displayed.
14.1.4
Measurement tools
To measure temperatures, the camera can use one or more measurement tools, e.g., a
spotmeter or a box. It is possible to add/remove tools from the
Measurement
menu.
