Troubleshooting

Possible cause

The batteries are completely discharged.

Solution

Charge the batteries.

Solution

In case of any malfunctions during operation, try resetting the device by long pressing the ON/OFF button for 10 seconds.

Possible cause

USB cable is damaged.

Solution

Replace USB cable.

Possible cause

The external power supply is discharged.

Solution

Charge the external power supply.

Possible cause

Calibration is required.

Solution

Carry out calibration according to Calibration Mode section.

Solution

If the image does not clear after calibration, you need to recalibrate.

Possible cause

After turning on the device, it takes some time for the sensor temperature to stabilize. This is normal and is not a defect.

Possible cause

The device was exposed to static electricity during operation.

Solution

After exposure to static electricity, the device may either reboot automatically, or require turning off and on again.

Possible cause

Brightness or contrast level is too low.

Solution

Adjust the brightness or contrast level in the Quick Menu.

Possible cause

Problems described may arise in adverse weather conditions (snow, rain, fog etc.).

Possible cause

Wrong settings.              

Solution

Adjust the device according to the Powering on and Image Setting section.

Check the outer surfaces of the lenses and the eyepieces and, where necessary, wipe away dust, condensation, frost, etc. In cold weather, you can use special anti-fogging coatings (e.g., the same as for corrective glasses).

Possible cause

Password in the device was changed.

Solution

Delete network and connect again inserting the password saved in the device.

Possible cause

There are too many Wi-Fi networks in the area where the device is located which may cause signal interference.

Solution

To ensure stable Wi-Fi performance, move the device to an area with few or no Wi-Fi networks.

Solution

Switch the device's Wi-Fi band.

Possible cause

The device has a 5 GHz network enabled, but the smartphone only supports 2.4 GHz.

Solution

Switch the device's Wi-Fi band to 2.4 GHz.

Possible cause

Smartphone or tablet is out of range of a strong Wi-Fi signal. There are obstacles between the device and the smartphone or tablet (e.g., concrete walls).

Solution

Relocate smartphone or tablet into the Wi-Fi signal line of sight.

Possible cause

The object is behind glass, which obstructs thermal vision.

Solution

Remove the glass.

Solution

The presence of such pixels is associated with the manufacturing technology of displays and microbolometers or digital sensors. It is not a defect.

Possible cause

In warm climates, objects in the background of a thermal image heat up differently because of thermal conductivity, generating a high temperature contrast and a sharper thermal image.

In cold climates, objects in the background of a thermal image will cool down to roughly the same temperature, which leads to a greatly reduced temperature contrast and a degraded image quality. This is normal for all thermal imaging devices.

Possible cause

Lens cover closed.

Solution

Open the covers of the thermal imaging and digital channels.

Possible cause

Channel is turned off.

Solution

Turn on the desired channel in the “Viewing Channel Activation” item of the General Settings section in the main menu.

Possible cause

If direct sunlight hits the binocular digital channel lens during daytime observation, the image may be overexposed. The device has a highly sensitive digital sensor and is intended primarily for night observation.

Solution

Do not use the device in both modes (digital and thermal imaging) opposite the sun, as well as in digital mode at night in front of bright oncoming light sources (car headlights, street lamps, etc.). Deterioration in image quality when using the device in this way is not a defect.
