System Settings Menu
Calibration Type
This allows selection of Blade or Scene-type calibration.
NOTE 1:
When Blade calibration is selected, the calibration is performed at startup
automatically without any user input by briefly closing the internal shutter located between the
image sensor and objective lens. When in Blade mode, calibration occurs automatically when
the system determines that calibration is necessary but user can manually calibration the
ATLAS by pressing and holding Switch (3) (
CAL
) for approximately three seconds.
NOTE 2:
Blade calibration while very convenient and automatic, does not take into effect
influence of the objective lens. In most cases, it is not necessary but if it appears that Blade
calibration does not produce sufficient results it may be necessary to switch ATLAS to Scene
calibration mode.
NOTE 3:
Scene calibration mode does not occur automatically and requires user to perform it
manually. To do Scene calibration press and hold the Switch (3) (
CAL
) for approximately three
seconds while the objective lens is completely covered with objective lens cover, a hand, etc.
Video Output
This menu item allows user to configure analog video output format by choosing between PAL
and NTSC or turn it off completely.
NOTE:
Setting Video Out to OFF when no external monitor is connected will reduce total power
consumption and will preserve the battery life.
Enable Photo
If Enable Photo is set to Yes, pressing and releasing Switch (1) in Normal Mode will take photo
and save it in the ATLAS memory. If Enable Photo is set to No this functionality is disabled.
Save and Exit
Selecting Save and Exit in Settings Menu brings the user back to the Main Menu.
