The NIR-656 / NIR-2K Thermal Imaging Camera is designed to be used with software
available for download from the AMETEK Land website.
•
IMAGEPro is available on a 30-day free trial
•
IMAGEViewer is free
Ensure that the imager is powered up and the Ethernet communications cable is
installed correctly between the imager and the PC.
Run the downloaded software. It may take up to one minute for the software to detect
and connect to the imager.
IMAGEPro and IMAGEViewer will then automatically display an image of the scene
within the camera’s field of view.
5.1 Focusing the thermal imager onto the target
If an individual target is to be measured, focus the camera onto the object by gripping
and rotating the front window retaining ring.
Rotate the ring clockwise to focus on more distant objects: rotate anticlockwise to focus
on nearer objects.
Note that the overall degree of rotation varies with lens type, but is always between a
quarter and a half-turn.
If no particular target object is to be measured, then rotate the focus ring to give the
best overall image resolution across the whole scene.
Make any necessary adjustments to the imager’s mounting to ensure the best possible
view of the required scene.
