• This device must be installed by qualified service personnel or system
installation personnel.
•
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
• To prevent eye damage and personal injury, do not look into the laser. Do
not point the laser directly at people or animals or indirectly off reflective
surfaces.
• Do not disassemble or modify the thermal device.
• Do not point the imager (with or without the lens cover) at intensive energy
sources, e.g. devices that emit laser radiation, or the sun. This can affect
the accuracy of the camera, and cause damage to the detector.
• Do not use the imager in an ambient temperature outside of the operation
range. High/low temperatures can cause damage to the device.
• Prior to start of the device, make sure that the power supply is properly
connected. If the power supply is connected incorrectly, the device may
be damaged.
• Do not place any objects on the power cord, and do not place the device
where the power cord can be easily touched.
• Do not get water or salt water on the device or permit the device to get
wet. Damage to the device may occur.
• Remove any water or moisture on the device before you install it. Damage
to the device may occur.
• Clean the case with a damp cloth and a weak soap solution. Do not use
abrasives, isopropyl alcohol, or solvents to clean the case or lens/screen.
• Be careful when cleaning the infrared lens. Do not clean the infrared lens
too vigorously. This can damage the anti-reflective coating.
• Avoid condensation. Taking the imager from cold to hot will cause
condensation in thermal imager. To protect the imager, power on the
device and wait until it becomes warm enough for the condensation to
evaporate.
• Keep device out of reach of children.
• Storage: If you do not use the imager for a long period of time, put the
device in a cool and dry environment. Store the device in an ambient
• This product is a precise electronic device that must be handled with care

8. Operation Instructions
The FMX 400 and 700 comes configured with static IP address for the infrared
camera. The infrared camera lies at 192.168.10.117. Connecting the computer
requires setting the IPv4 settings of the Ethernet port to a static IP address in
the same “Class C.” We suggest applying 192.168.10.110 with a subnet mask of
255.255.255.0. There is no need to set a gateway as this is a direct connection
from the computer to the cameras with no router.
Be sure the static IP address is set by doing the following:
1. Click on Windows icon.
2. Click on Settings.
3. Click on Network and Internet.
4. Click on Ethernet.
5. Click on Change Adapter Settings.
6. Right click on Ethernet and choose properties.
7.
8. The IP address should read 192.168.10.110. If it does not, click in the box and
fill in the correct number.
9. The Subnet Mask should read 255.255.255.0. If it does not, click in the box
and fill in the correct number.
10. Click Ok.

Do not use corrosive chemicals on the optical glass components. The germanium
window surface is coated with anti-reflection coating. Dust, grease, and
fingerprints will produce harmful substances and lead to a decline in performance,
or cause scratches. If dirt is found, please use the following methods:
1. Use a blown balloon or a soft brush to clean the lens surface to avoid dust
particles scratching the anti-reflection film on lens surface during the
wiping process.
2. Use a soft cotton or microfiber cloth or lens wiping paper and dip in distilled
water. Gently wipe the lens surface from the middle to the edge, paying
attention to not crack the lens, or use too much liquid. If the lens is still not
clean, replace the cloth and repeat the wiping process.
Do not use corrosive cleaning solutions on the optical glass components. It is
recommended to disinfect the camera surface regularly with a non-corrosive
sanitizing product. Follow the directions provided by the manufacturer of the
cleaning solution. Adhere to the sanitation protocols and cleaning schedule set
forth by the employer.
It is recommended to have the device(s) re-calibrated annually. Contact
customer service to schedule maintenance.
When the equipment is not in use, the device should be placed in a dust-free
and moisture-free environment with a stable temperature and humidity.
SCHEDULE MAINTENANCE.
