resolution

Same as “thermal sensitivity.” The number of meaningful digits in a temperature reading, for

 

example, “10 °C, 10.1 °C, or 10.01 °C.” For the 10.01 °C reading, the resolution is “0.01 °C.”

saved image

An image written (recorded) onto the SD card installed in the Thermal Imager. Once saved,

 

images stay intact on the SD memory card when you turn off the Thermal Imager power.

scale

The Thermal Imager uses your choice of two temperature scales: °C for Celsius or °F for

 

Fahrenheit.

SD Card

Removable, reusable flash memory storage cards commonly used in digital cameras. The

 

Thermal Imager accepts SD (up to 4 MB) and SDHC (for “High Capacity,” greater than 4 MB

 

up to 32 MB) SD cards. It does not accept mini-SD or micro-SD cards.

sensor

Also called “detector,” or “thermal sensor,” the component that detects temperatures

 

throughout the field of view. Model M12 160x120’s detector is a microbolometer. (See

 

“microbolometer.”)

sleep mode

Automatic battery-conserving mode that begins after 5 minutes with no activity. The Thermal

 

Imager remains ready to operate, so warm-up is not required when in sleep mode. This is not

 

the same as auto power-off, which occurs after 20 minutes of no activity.

span

The width of the measurement window from the lowest measured temperature to the highest

 

measured temperature. The “Level” setting moves this window up or down in temperature.

spectral range

The IR bandwidth, or longest to shortest infrared wavelengths that the Thermal Imager

 

detects.

storage

Electronic memory (also called “Flash memory”) for saving the images and data created in

 

the Thermal Imager during a work session. The Thermal Imager uses a standard SD (Secure

 

Digital) removable, re-usable memory card as its sole storage system. Once images are

 

loaded onto a computer, you can erase the SD card.
