Microbolometer Calibration

Calibration eliminates image flaws (such as vertical bars, phantom images, grainy field of view, etc.) by equalizing the microbolometer background temperature.

There are three calibration modes: Manual (M), Semi-Automatic (SA) and Automatic (A).

Select the desired mode in the menu option Calibration Mode .

M Mode (Manual).

• Close the lens cover.
• Press the ON/OFF (11) button briefly.
• Having finished calibration, open the lens cover.

SA Mode (Semi-Automatic).

• Calibration is activated with a short press of the ON/OFF (11) button.
• You do not have to close the lens cover (the microbolometer is closed with an internal shutter automatically).

A Mode (Automatic).

• The device calibrates by itself according to the firmware algorithm.
• You do not have to close the lens cover (the microbolometer is closed with an internal shutter automatically).
• User assisted calibration with the ON/OFF (11) button is also allowed in this mode (as in the Semi-Automatic mode).
• In Automatic calibration mode a countdown timer will appear instead of the calibration mode icon 3 seconds before automatic calibration begins.
