6.2 Adjusting for Background Compensation
When the emissivity of measured object is low, reflectivity will be high. If
background
objects are radiating larger amounts of infrared radiation, due to either higher tempera
-
ture than the target or higher emissivity, the infrared energy from the
background wll
add to the ndcated temperature reported by the MkroScan 7600PRO thus causng an
error. The MkroScan 7600PRO ncorporates a sophstcated algorthm to remove these
types of reflectivity/
background errors.
To adjust the Background Compensation temperature value:
1) Verify the camera is operating in
[RUN]
mode.
2) Go to
[MENU]
→
[CAL]
→
[BACKGROUND]

A bar wll appear at the bottom of the screen allowng you to
adjust the background compensaton temperature value.
NOTES
1. The default value of the
temperature is based
on the cursor point
if the cursor point is
displayed. If there is no
cursor, the temperature
is based on the center
point of the screen.
2. The temperature is
displayed using an
emissivity value of
1.00 even if the screen
emissivity or multi-point
emissivity is specified
differently.
3. If performing a calibra-
tion, the compensation
value of the background
compensation is can-
celed.
4. The background com-
pensation is only effec-
tive when the emissivity
is less than 1.00.
5. To ensure accurate
results, the background
function should only be
performed by individu-
als who understand the
basics of heat transfer
and infrared radiation
theory.
