Using Display Screen Temperature Markers

Using Display Screen Temperature Markers

You can annotate images with various types of markers to help you interpret or analyze images. For example, you can highlight particular areas of interest in an image or highlight critical objects whose minimum, maximum, or average temperatures must be in a particular range.

Use the following basic marker options:

Four standard spot temperatures: hot, cold, and center points each marked with a crosshair and the mouse pointer location, marked by the tip of the pointer.

Maximum, minimum, and average temperatures for the center box.

You can enable these markers to appear on the display screen in scan target mode and/or on a saved image you open. With the mouse pointer marker enabled, you can move the pointer around the display screen to reveal the spot temperatures at any place on the image.

Note

To add advanced markers, see Chapter 7, User-Defined Temperature Markers.

Movable points and boxes and automatic hot and cold point detection functions are available on Ti45 and Ti55 models only.

The pointer may change orientation as it approaches the edge of the display screen.

“Unchecking” the mouse temperature removes the pointer temperature digits only; the pointer itself still appears on the display screen.

To enable/disable spot temperature marker functions from either scan target mode or from an open image:

1.Tap F.

2.Use the MOUSE controller to position the pointer over Image Settings on the popup menu and tap E.

3.Position the pointer over the Display tab and tap E.
