Real-time saving is started and terminated (immediately) by pushing the Enter button in the "Real
time" sub-menu. The following displays are shown with the real-time saving function executing
(additionally to the live image), see Fig. 97
Real-time saving indication – page 52:
■ Activated real-time saving function by checkmark in the menu
■ Red dot for currently executed saving, as well as the time elapsed since the start on the right side
below the palette
■ SDHC-card symbol in the symbol line on the right side below the thermal image: yellow (permanent
write access)
During real-time saving, only thermal images are stored in the IRB format. This way, it is possible to
subsequently edit and correct the digital data of the sequence using the IRBIS ® 3 analysis software.
Precise temporal allocation of the data is ensured by consecutive numbering of the single images within
the sequence and by saving time stamps in the header.
When (geometrically) allocating the thermal image sequence to a photo of the scene, it is
recommendable to install the VarioCAM
®
HD on a tripod in a stationary manner and to save a
photo before or after real-time saving in Merge mode.

9.2.3.2 Video saving
If the saved data of a serial measurement does not require any radiometric editing or if displaying the
temperature by means of shown measuring objects and/or allocating the temperatures using the false
colour representation is sufficient, video saving can be performed (as an alternative to real-time saving of
the digital raw data).
In this case, the currently displayed image area. including all selected image elements (for the setting see
chapter 9.1.5 Menu item "Elements" – page 43) is saved as a video sequence (AVI file) and can be
displayed with generally available player software (media player). The menu (to the left of the image), as
well as the help and status symbol lines (below the image) are not saved in the video. In analoguey to
real-time saving, video saving can be started and/or deactivated (immediately) by pushing the Enter
button in the “Video” sub-menu.
