Using the Built-In Visual Image Camera

Every time you take a thermal picture, the Thermal Imager captures a visual image at the same time. When you save a thermal image, the Thermal Imager saves the visual image that goes with it as well. Just like with thermal images, you can see live visual images on the display.

Press the button to switch between thermal and visual images.

Figure 10 shows a visual image as it would appear on the display. This is the companion to the thermal image in Figure 8. There is no temperature data associated with a visual image. Visual images are to help you identify objects in thermal images.

The visual image camera has its own lens. It is fixed-focus. (No focus adjustment is necessary.) The visual image camera lens is a small rectangular window below the lens, forward of and above the trigger.

NOTE

If visual images ever seem to have poor quality, check to see if this lens is dirty. Clean it gently with a camera lens tissue moistened with camera lens cleaner fluid.
