Temperature control
Operational statuses
Use an efficient heat removal device
If the camera has switched to Alert status, it is also recommended to provide a more
efficient heat sink for the camera housing before resuming operation.
However, additional heat dissipation arrangements are always advantageous.
LED color and flashing pattern Status
Off Off
The TEC is switched off.
Green ‐ red (flashing) Deviated
The sensor cooler is operating, the defined sensor temperature (setpoint) has
not been reached or stabilized yet. This signal is no error signal.
Green (continuous) Stable
The temperature is stabilized at one setpoint, the camera operates optimally.
Red (flashing) UpperLimit
The sensor cooler operates at its upper power limit. The cooler is not able to
keep the set temperature; however, a critical temperature level has not been
reached yet.
Under warm ambient temperatures, consider red flashing for an extended period
of time as a warning signal: if the camera keeps working under unchanged
conditions, an emergency shutdown is likely.
The image correction quality may also deteriorate during this stage.
Red (flashing) LowerLimit
The sensor cooler operates below its lower power limit.
Under cold ambient conditions, the cooler may not be required to keep the
sensor temperature at the lowest setpoint.
The image correction quality may also deteriorate during this stage.
Red (continuous) Alert
If the operating temperature is out of range, this may cause an emergency
shutdown. An emergency shutdown is indicated by the LED continuously glowing
red. In this case, the color of the LED does not change, even if the camera cools
down again.
If the internal camera temperature exceeds the defined threshold temperature,
the sensor and the critical electronics of the sensor board shut down to prevent
overheating. In this case, the camera can be restarted only manually, which is
possible only after the camera cooled down sufficiently.
