Attachment cable locations
To use the attachment cables:
(1)
Pull the spring loaded cable out and away from the camera body.
(2)
Slip a carabineer or similar securing device through the cable loop.
(3)
Release the cable.
Internal springs automatically pull the attachment cables in tight to the camera housing to
minimize any snag hazards.
NFPA 1801 Basic and Plus Mode Operation
Certain Evolution 6000 camera models are compliant with
NFPA 1801 Standard on Thermal Imagers for the Fire Service; 2013 Edition
.
See approval information on the label located on the underside of the camera housing.
NFPA 1801 describes a required "Basic Mode" of operation common among all compliant thermal
imaging cameras. It also allows for a "Plus Mode" operation which, once accessed, provides a
number of useful features and options for the firefighter trained in their use.
The EVOLUTION 6000 camera always operates in the NFPA 1801 defined "Basic Mode". The
EVOLUTION 6000+ and EVOLUTION 6000X TICs, however, provide "Plus Mode" features. See
chapter 3.6 for information on accessing the Plus Mode.
Non-NFPA compliant EVOLUTION 6000+ and EVOLUTION 6000X TICs do not have a
"Basic Mode" and will automatically operate in "Plus Mode" when the camera is turned on.
