Important notes
• You can control the thermal camera using your multifunctional
display. The Joystick Control Unit (JCU) is optional, but can be
used in conjunction with the multifunctional display to control the
thermal camera if required.
• “Dual payload” thermal cameras include 2 independent lenses; 1
for thermal (infrared) and visible light, 1 for thermal (infrared) only.
If you only have 1 display you should only connect the video cable
labelled “VIS / IR” (visible light / infrared) to the display. If you have
2 or more displays you should connect 1 cable to each display.
• You can only view the thermal camera image on the multifunction
display to which the camera is physically connected. If you want
to view the thermal camera image on more than 1 display you
must obtain a suitable third-party video distribution unit.
• For further information regarding the camera’s installation
(including connections and mounting), refer to the installation
instructions that accompany the camera.
