Hele Mai
is fitted with a FLIR Navigator II
Infra Red Thermal Imaging System, allowing
you to see clearlyat night, through smoke or
haze.
NOTE: In spite of the installation
of the FLIR System, operation of
Hele Mai in darkness is still
subject to the provisions of
your charter agreement.
Operation of the unit is through the joystick control in the pilothouse.
The circuit breaker on the electronics sub-panel must be
ON
. Images appear on the
Raymarine displays as “Camera 3". Here is a control summary (see the FLIR manual):
The
power button
(top left) turns the unit on.
The
joystick
(knob) controls where the unit is looking.
The
dim
button controls the brightness of the control panel.
The
home
button returns the camera to the straight-ahead position quickly, after which
you can resume using the joystick.
The
zoom
button toggles the scene to twice its magnification, and a “2x” will appear.
The
scene button
cycles through
night running, day running, man overboard
and

docking
settings, changing the brightness and contrast of the image. You should try
cycling through these to get an idea of which setting is most appropriate.
