ThermalCapture Fusion – User Manual
5.1 Power On
You can power on with or without a connected sd card. ThermalCapture Fusion begins to boot
immediately when 5V is supplied to the MINI-USB connector or to the 8-pin connector. During boot
up the LED on the back side glows red. This will take one or two seconds. After boot up
ThermalCapture Fusion waits for the sd card and the LED glows green. When the sd card was
found and ThermalCapture Fusion is ready to work, this LED will start blinking green.
5.2 Data Recording
When the trigger input is pulled to ground images from the TAU core are captured and stored to
the sd card. The LED on the back side will flicker red and the letters “REC” are shown in the
analog video output. Do not power off ThermalCapture Fusion or release the sd card when the red
LED is flickering. The file-system of the sd card may get damaged. If an error occurred while
writing the data to the sd card the LED will blink green and red alternately. This will also happen if
the sd card is full.
5.3 Power Off
Every time the LED does not flicker red, it is safe to remove the sd card or to power off
ThermalCapture Fusion. Power off can only be done by turning off the power supply which is
connected to the MINI-USB connector or 8-pin connector.
