Using Image Alignment

Image alignment is an automatic adjustment that occurs as you focus the infrared camera lens. The visible light image and the infrared image are lined up based on the focusing distance of the infrared lens so that they may be combined for viewing and analysis. The visible light image and the infrared image are lined up for distances greater than 50 cm (approximately 2 ft).

Focusing

Prior to capturing images using the visible light module and IR Fusion, it is important to make sure the target object is in focus. As you rotate the infrared (IR) lens to focus the camera, if the IR blend is less than 50%, the IR Fusion blend level changes to 50% infrared and 50% visible light (VL). Once you have the target object in focus and stop rotating the IR lens, the IR Fusion level returns to your setting. You can focus the infrared portion of the image only; the focus of the VL portion is set at the factory.

To focus the camera, remove the IR lens cap, point the lens at the target, and manually rotate the infrared lens with your finger. Focus by aligning the edges of the IR and VL images.

Adjusting IR-VL Fusion Blend Level

Note

This feature is not available on the Ti40.

You can change the IR Fusion blend level from full infrared (IR) to full visible light (VL) or some combination in between. When the IR Fusion blend level is set to full IR, 100% of the image is IR. When the IR Fusion blend level is set to full VL, 100% of the image is VL. When the IR Fusion blend level is set somewhere in the middle of full IR and full VL, an appropriate amount of the image is IR and an appropriate amount is VL, thus displaying a fused—or blended—image.

To adjust the IR-VL Fusion blend level using the level & span button and mouse controller:

1.Press and hold Guntil the IR Fusion level dialog box appears near the bottom of the screen.
