Strictly conform to local electrical safety standards and use power adapters that are
marked with the LPS standard when installing and using this device. Otherwise,
this device may be damaged.
Use accessories delivered with this device. The voltage must meet input voltage
requirements for this device.
If this device is installed in places with unsteady voltage, ground this device to
discharge high energy such as electrical surges in order to prevent the power supply
from burning out.
When this device is in use, ensure that no water or any liquid flows into the device.
If water or liquid unexpectedly flows into the device, immediately power off the
device and disconnect all cables (such as power cables and network cables) from
this device.
Do not expose the thermal imaging camera or unpacked product to extremely
strong radiation sources, such as the sun, laser, or arc welding machine, regardless
of whether the device is being electrified or not; do not put the camera close to high
thermal objects such as the sunlight; otherwise, the precision of the camera may be
affected and even the detector inside the camera may suffer a permanent damage.
If this device is installed in places where thunder and lightning frequently occur,
ground the device nearby to discharge high energy such as thunder strikes in order
to prevent device damage.
Unless otherwise specified, do not use the camera in a temperature lower than -
10°C (+14°F) or higher than +50°C (+122°F). Too-high or too-low temperature
may cause image display anomaly of the camera and the camera will be damaged if
it is working under such a condition for a long time.
If the camera is installed outdoors, avoid direct sunlight at dawn and dusk on the
camera lens and install a sunshield with frontal and rear positions adjusted
according to the sunlight angle.
Avoid heavy loads, intensive shakes, and soaking to prevent damages during
transportation and storage. The warranty does not cover any device damage that is
caused during secondary packaging and transportation after the original packaging
is taken apart.
Protect this device from fall-down and intensive strikes, keep the device away from
magnetic field interference, and do not install the device in places with shaking
surfaces or under shocks.
Clean the device with a soft dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, dip the cloth into slight
neutral cleanser, gently wipe the dirt with the cloth, and then dry the device.
Since the camera lens is painted with a durable coating material, it adapts to
outdoor environment. The lens must be cleaned regularly. If the image quality is
reduced or excessive dirt is deposited on the lens, clean the lens in a timely manner.
In sandy (in desert) or corrosive (on sea) environment, use the camera with caution;
improper use may cause the coating to peel off.

Do not jam the ventilation opening. Follow the installation instructions provided in
this document when installing the device.
Keep the device away from heat sources such as radiators, electric heaters, or other
heat equipment.
Keep the device away from moist, dusty, extremely hot or cold places, or places
with strong electric radiation.
If the device is installed outdoors, take insect- and moisture-proof measures to
avoid circuit board corrosion that can affect monitoring.
Remove the power plug if the device is idle for a long time.
Before unpacking, check whether the fragile sticker is damaged. If the fragile
sticker is damaged, contact customer services or sales personnel. The manufacturer
shall not be held responsible for any artificial damage of the fragile sticker.

1 Overview
1.1 Principle of Thermal Imaging and Advantages
Any object with temperature higher than the absolute zero (-273.15°F) will emit
infrared (IR) ray, even though it does not emit light. The IR ray is also called thermal
radiation. IR rays emitted by objects with different temperatures can be absorbed by the
detector to reflect temperature change and thus generate an electric effect. The electric
signal is amplified and processed to produce a thermal image that corresponds to the
thermal distribution of the object surface. This is the process of thermal imaging.
Adapt to any environment
Traditional cameras rely on natural or environmental light to shoot images, but this
IR thermal imaging camera relies on the IR energy radiated by an object itself to
form an image, not requiring any light. The IR thermal imaging camera is
applicable to any environment and not affected by light strength. It can detect and
identify any camouflage and concealed object both in daytime or nighttime,
implementing round-the-clock monitoring.
Monitor the temperature field with object energy distributed
The IR thermal imaging camera can show the temperature field of an object,
converting the invisible surface temperature distribution situation to a visible
thermal image that reflects the surface temperature distribution situation of the
object. By this monitoring, users can discover temperature anomaly in a timely
manner and take precautionary measures to avoid any risk that may be caused by
the anomaly, for example, a fire.
Boast cloud penetration capability
Visible light and near IR ray will be absorbed by the air, cloud and smoke, but they
are transparent to IR ray of the 3~5 μm Medium Wavelength Infrared (MWIR)
region and 8~14 μm Long Wavelength Infrared (LWIR) region. Traditional
cameras cannot shoot clear images under cloudy environment, but the IR thermal
imaging camera can penetrate the cloud and smoke to shoot clear images.
