4.4 Thermal display image
Upon successful login, a thermal display image will appear on the screen. The camera outputs
an IP-video feed that can be displayed on a compatible Multi-function display (MFD), an analog
monitor, or a desktop/laptop via a web browser.
Take some time to familiarize yourself with the thermal image on your display. This would
allow you to utilize the system effectively.
Points to take note about viewing thermal images:
1. Consider every object you view in terms of how it will look “thermally” as opposed to how
it looks to your eye. For example, look for changes caused by the heating effect of the
sun. These are particularly evident right after sunset.
2. Experiment by looking for hot objects (such as people) compared to the colder
surroundings.
3. Experiment with the camera for daytime viewing. The camera can provide improved
daytime viewing in environments where traditional video camera performance suffers,
such as in shadows or backlit scenes.
The thermal display image includes icons to indicate the current status of the camera.
