Calibrating the lens–camera combination
5.1
Introduction
Before a new lens can be used with the camera, the lens–camera combination must be
calibrated
.
This is a process that previously had to be performed by a FLIR service department, but
for the FLIR Exx series and FLIR T5xx series the calibration can be performed by the
user, using a calibration target. The calibration target is included in the lens package.
5.2
Procedure
Note
The images below show a FLIR Exx series camera, but the procedure is similar
for FLIR T5xx series cameras.
Follow this procedure:
1. Dip the calibration target in water for 1 second and let the excess drip off.
2. Tape or hang the calibration target on a wall.
