Focusing and Capturing an Image 

Point the Imager at the object or area of interest, focus by turning the focus 
control until the image displayed on the LCD is as clear as possible, and then 
press and release the trigger. The Imager displays the captured image and a 
menu. To cancel image storage and return to live viewing, press and release 
the trigger. 

Note 

Minimum focus distance for thermal (IR) camera is 15 cm (approx. 
6 inches). IR-Fusion

 and visible light images are unavailable on the 

TiS Thermal Imager. 

Note 

The Imager can save the image as a simple picture or as a 
radiometric image that allows further temperature analysis. To 
change the saved image format, see the “Setting File Format” section 
later in this manual. 

Pressing the softkey labeled 

Settings

 allows modification of image 

characteristics such as palette, picture-in-picture, and range. Refer to the 
appropriate setting section for operational details. 

Saving Imager Data 

The Imager saves displayed data on an SD card placed into the camera. See the 
“Changing the SD Card” section for inserting and ejecting an SD card. The file 
format set on the Imager determines how the measured information is stored 
on the SD card. To store Imager data: 

1.

 

Point camera at the area of interest and pull the trigger to capture an 
image. This will freeze the image in the display and bring up the Image 
Capture menu. 

2.

 

Press the softkey labeled 

Store

. If the SD card is in the Imager and there 

is enough room left on the card, the information is stored.
