FILTER
If the laser beam passes through air with varying temperature, this may influence the direction of the laser beam. If
measurement values fluctuate, this could mean unstable readings. Try to reduce air movements between laser and
detector by, for instance, moving heat sources or closing doors. If the readings remain unstable, increase the filter
value (more samples will become available to the statistical filter).
Select filter
Tap to expand the filter tab. Use as short a time as possible that still produces acceptable stability during the meas-
urement. Default is set to 1. The filter value you choose, will be default next time you start the program.
Select filter on the tab.

Emissivity (e)
The emissivity value of the surface/object is captured by the crosshair. The correct emissivity value is important for an
accurate calculation. Possible values: 0.01 - 1.00, but we do not recommend value below 0.6. The value is normally
set from a list of emissivity values for some common materials.
l1.00 for a perfect blackbody.
l0.01 for a perfect shiny (in the infrared spectrum) object.
Background temperature (Tbkg).
The reflected background temperature of the surface/object. Can normally be set to the ambient temperature. Value
