4.8 Color Reference Bar
The Color Reference Bar provides a visual indication of the range of scene
temperatures detected. It displays on the right hand edge of the LCD and
provides a point of reference to quickly identify the different temperature
ranges in the scene. Heat-indicating colorization overlays over the thermal
images to assist users approximate the relative temperature of objects in
the scene. The numeric anchor temperatures change based on the sense
mode detected by the camera to help approximate the relative temperature
of objects within the colorized region.
NOTE: WHEN THE CAMERA CHANGES MODE (FROM HIGH SENSITIVITY, MID SENSITIVITY AND LOW SENSITIVITY), THE SCALE
CHANGES SO THERE IS AN ACCURATE REPRESENTATION OF THE RELATIVE TEMPERATURE.
1) The coolest objects in the scene are depicted in the black to white color band with black being the coldest
and white the hottest.
2) Yellow starts immediately following the hottest (white) temperature. Light yellow displays to depict the lowest
temperature within the yellow temperature band. The hue changes to a darker yellow to depict hotter
temperature within the yellow band.
3) Orange starts immediately following the hottest temperature in the yellow temperature band. Light orange
displays to depict the lowest temperature within the orange temperature band. The hue changes to a darker
orange to depict hotter temperatures within the orange band.
4) Red starts immediately following the hottest temperature in the orange band. Light red depicts the lowest
temperature within the red temperature band. The hue changes gradually to a darker red to depict hotter
temperatures within the red temperature band.
NOTE: THE USER MUST BE AWARE OF THE SENSE MODE THE CAMERA IS IN AT ALL TIMES TO BETTER USE THE HEAT INDICATING
COLORIZATION AND ITS CORRESPONDING TEMPERATURE BASED ON THE COLOR REFERENCE BAR NUMERIC ANCHOR
TEMPERATURES.
4.9 Direct Temperature Measurement (DTM)
The Direct Temperature Measurement (DTM) feature gives temperature readout of a fixed point on the screen. The DTM
feature is accurate to ±5° for 32°F to 200°F (0°C to 100 °C), and ±10% for 201°F to 2000°F (100°C to 1000°C).
TRAINING
IS REQUIRED BEFORE USE. DO NOT
use the
DTM
readings as exact measurements. Be aware that different materials
and different surface textures do not register temperature readings in the same way. Use the readings from the
DTM
only
to determine relative temperature differences. Training for this feature must include experience using the
DTM
in actual
incident situations.
DO NOT
make critical decisions based solely on a temperature reading.
WARNING
USE OF THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE PART OF A COMPLETE TRAINING PROGRAM. INTERPRETATION OF THE
INFORMATION FROM THIS EQUIPMENT REQUIRES TRAINING, EXPERIENCE, AND PRACTICE. DO NOT USE THE SYSTEM IF
YOU HAVE NOT BEEN THOROUGHLY TRAINED IN ITS USE AND OPERATION. USE OF THIS DEVICE WITHOUT PROPER
TRAINING AND UNDERSTANDING OF ITS OPERATION MAY CAUSE ERRORS IN JUDGMENT BASED ON
MISINTERPRETATION OF THE INFORMATION WHICH MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
Information
The measured temperature is based on an assumed target emissivity of 0.95.
he measurement indicated is not a measure of air temperature.
Unless otherwise specified at the time of order, the unit of measurement (Celsius or Fahrenheit) is preset at the
factory to the normal standard for the designated country.
