OVERVIEW
FL360 Camera
The FL360 is a live-streaming 360° multipurpose technical rescue camera. It is designed to advance
rescue capabilities at emergency scenes.
FL360 Camera provides a completely new dimension in imaging technology, giving rescuers the ability to
harness high-definition, streaming video that can be transmitted via wireless or wired connections to a
mobile device. The complete spherical image taken by FL360 allows the rescue technician to quickly
view any space in its entirety.
FL360 Camera has the capability to record 360° images or videos and communicate via two-way audio.
All recorded media is digitally overlaid on a map, and is time, date, and GPS-stamped (GPS coordinates
are mobile device dependent and uses control tablet’s position).
This manual provides information for the safe and proper operation and maintenance of the FL360
Camera. Please read the complete user manual before operating this device. If you have any questions

Usage Precautions
The following precautions should be taken in order to prevent damage or misuse:
•The recommended continuous ambient operating temperature for the FL360 ranges from -10° C to
60° C. The system is designed to operate at this temperature indefinitely. If necessary, however, the
system can be operated at higher or lower temperatures for short periods of time.
•Avoid leaving FL360 Camera in direct sunlight when not in use.
•Never use the provided coiled tethering cable to support the full weight of the camera. Use rescue
rope and the provided eye hook to lower FL360 into a space.
•Do not expose the device to physical stress or impact.
•Always use manufacturer-approved batteries, chargers, and accessories.
WARNING: Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the manufacturer will
void the warranty and could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Safety Precautions
•Only use the FL360 system in a safe manner.
•It is important to understand and follow all standard operating procedures, safety precautions and
practices when conducting rescue operations of any kind.
•Rescue Personnel should always wear appropriate personal protective equipment when conducting
operations.
•Operating at the scene of a structure collapse is inherently dangerous. Rescuers require skill,
experience, training, and adherence to their organization's safety protocols and procedures to
minimize risk and work safely and successfully in this environment.
•Rescue personnel should address any safety concerns to their Incident Commander or Safety Officer
and follow their superior’s instructions while working at the rescue scene.
•Rescuers that have not been appropriately trained or have insufficient experience should not
attempt activities that could result in injury to themselves or others.
Heat Precautions
The FL360 heatsink will become warm or hot to touch when operated for long durations or in areas with
limited airflow. This is normal as the on-board processor within the camera uses the heatsink to
dissipate heat to ensure smooth and uninterrupted operation of FL360.
The maximum recommended continuous ambient operating temperature for the FL360 is 140°F (60°C).
The camera is designed to operate at this temperature indefinitely. The system can be operated at
higher temperatures, when necessary, but only for short periods of time.
To prevent overexposure to heat, avoid leaving the system in direct sunlight when not in use.
Electrical Safety
The FL360 Camera will conduct electricity. Please do not operate the camera in the vicinity of or during
an electrical storm. Avoid contact with any live sources of electrical power. Ensure that the working area
is safe, and all sources of power have been disconnected or made safe before conducting rescue
operations. Take all precautions necessary to avoid electrocution, which could result in serious injury or
death.
Hazardous Atmospheres
The FL360 Camera is not certified for use in atmospheres that contain flammable, combustible,
conductive or explosive agents; or in atmospheres that contain contaminants such as fumes, dusts,
mists etc. Please ensure that the working environment is free of flammable gases or liquids before
operating the camera. Operating the camera within these hazardous environments could cause an

explosion. It is important to follow all safety protocols and procedures relating to potentially hazardous
atmospheres and areas.
Batteries and Battery Chargers - Warnings
The usage of batteries is at your own risk. Before handling, ensure user has appropriate understanding
of the charging, discharging, and installing of lithium-ion batteries. Agility Technologies Corporation is
not responsible for any damage caused by misuse or mishandling of li-ion batteries and/or chargers.
Make sure to:
•Only use approved batteries recommended specifically by the manufacturer for use in the FL360
Camera. Failure to do so could damage the camera or cause some or all of the camera functions to
fail. Each FL360 Rechargeable Li-ion Battery is equipped with a protection circuit to increase safety
and to minimize risk. Nevertheless, the misuse or mishandling of lithium-ion rechargeable batteries
can pose a serious risk of personal injury or property damage.
•Use caution when working with lithium-ion batteries as they are very sensitive to charging
characteristics and may explode or burn if mishandled or misused. For this reason, do not store
FL360 Rechargeable Li-ion batteries in or near objects that will produce a static electric charge. Avoid
quick pressure changes as they can cause batteries to malfunction.
•Always charge on a fireproof surface.
•Charge only in a recommended charger designed for this specific type of lithium-ion battery.
•Do not overcharge or over-discharge batteries.
•Recharge drained batteries as soon as possible.
•Do not short circuit batteries.
•Do not mix and match old, new, used, and unused batteries.
•Never leave batteries unattended while charging.
•Always take the batteries out of the camera body when the FL360 Camera is not in use.
•Do not expose batteries to extreme heat or moisture.
•Do not dispose of batteries in fire. Regulations and laws pertaining to the recycling and disposal of
lithium-ion batteries vary from country to country as well as by state and local government. Please
consult your local jurisdiction regarding appropriate disposal. Note that many retail stores offer free
recycling of rechargeable batteries.
WARNING: Under no circumstances are UNPROTECTED lithium-ion cells to be used in the FL360 Camera
as these could irreparably damage the onboard electronics and image sensors. Damage caused by
unauthorized batteries will void the manufacturer's warranty of the FL360 Camera.

BATTERY LIDS
Environmental Battery Lid (0607-59-003)
The FL360 Environmental Battery Lid is the go-to lid for the FL360 Camera. This lid is designed to allow
the camera to be used for short periods under water at depths of up to 3 meters.
●Ensure that the gasket on the interior side of the Environmental Lid is in good condition, free from
debris, and contains no nicks or cuts that could negatively affect the seal (Figure 4).
●The Battery Lid is held in place by two captive stainless-steel bolts and must be securely and evenly
hand-tightened into place using the provided FL360 Battery Compartment Tool.
WARNING: DO NOT over-tighten the bolts, or the camera may be damaged.

Speaker Microphone Battery Lid (0607-59-002)
The FL360 Speaker Microphone Battery Lid incorporates a speaker and microphone to allow two-way
audio functionality.
The Speaker Microphone Battery Lid is water resistant for rain, water spray, and accidental dunking
(IP67). If you wish to use the FL360 Camera under water, exchange the Speaker Microphone Battery Lid
with the Environmental Battery Lid.
●Ensure that the gasket on the interior side of the Speaker Microphone Battery Lid is in good
condition, free from debris, and contains no nicks or cuts that could negatively affect the seal (Figure
6).
●The Battery Lid is held in place by two captive stainless-steel bolts and must be securely and evenly
hand-tightened into place using the provided FL360 Battery Compartment Tool.
●Flush out any debris from the speaker grill by removing it from the camera and running it under a
flow of clean water. Shake out all the water from the lid and allow to dry thoroughly before
reinstalling.
WARNING: DO NOT over-tighten the bolts, or the camera may be damaged. Do not insert objects into
the speaker grill or microphone port, as doing so might puncture the speaker cone diaphragm causing a
leak.
