Page 23

There are three measurement mode positions associated with this switch:

Automatic

Semi Automatic

Manual

In Automatic mode the ThermoView imager automatically adjusts the image to show the lowest temperature value present in the thermal scene (MIN) and the highest temperature value in the scene (MAX).

In Semi-Automaticmode the ThermoView imager keeps calculating the MIN limit (lowest temperature value on the thermal scene) automatically.

In Manual mode the user can adjust Gain and Level manually.

See Selecting the Measurement Mode on page 42 for more information. The default position is automatic mode.

Gain and Level Thumbwheels

The Level Thumbwheel control adjusts the median point of a given temperature scale.

The Gain Thumbwheel control adjusts the temperature band around the median

Level point.

See Gain and Level Thumbwheels on page 45 for more information about these controls.

Focus Wheel

The Focus Wheel is located on the bottom of the imager’s housing in from of the trigger as shown in Figure 14. Adjust the focus by turning the Focus Wheel with your fingers or thumb.
