•
The IRI 4010 features an On/Off power
button above the display. The IRI 4010 is
switched on and off by holding the power
button down for more than one second.
•The IRI 4010 takes approximately twenty
seconds to become operational. During this
time a number of audible clicks will be heard.
This is normal as it is part of the calibration
procedure. After start-up these clicks
continue, but become much less frequent.
•For best measurement results the imager
should be switched on at least 5 minutes
before use.

3.4.4 IRI 4010 Hot Button Operation
This section describes some of the basic functions of the IRI 4010. The IRI 4010’s hot buttons are labelled 1
to 4 from left to right for the purposes of this user manual. Their function is displayed as hot button labels on
the IRI 4010’s display. Their labels can change in different modes of operation.
Figure 11: Hot Buttons
3.4.4.1 Hot Button 1 – Zoom
This hot button toggles the zoom feature between off (X1) and on (X2). When zoom X2 is selected the central
region of the thermal image expands to fill the display as in Figure 12, and the hot button label displays “X2”.
Figure 12: Zoom Function
3.4.4.2 Hot Button 2 – Freeze/Save
Hot button 2 freezes the live thermal image. It is possible to edit the image in freeze mode before saving it.
Pressing hot button 2 again saves the image as an image.iri file to the SD card, whilst pressing hot button 1
instead rejects the image. The file saving takes a few seconds, and the file name is given a sequential number.
See Section 5.3.1.1.4 for how to save an image direct to a PC via the USB cable.
3.4.4.3 Hot Button 3 - Direction Buttons Control.
Hot button 3 selects either of the temperature measurement cursors (SP+ or SPX), or either L-S (temperature
level and span) when in manual mode or B-C (thermal image brightness & contrast) when in auto mode. The
4 direction buttons are then used to adjust the position of the selected cursor, the level & span, or the
brightness & contrast depending on which mode is selected. Note that SPX must be enabled in the
Measurement Settings menu, and that the B-C control is an advanced user function that must be enabled
before use in the Camera Settings menu.
3.4.4.4 Hot Button 4 – Auto / Manual
This hot button toggles between auto and manual mode. In auto mode, the imager continually adjusts the level
and span to achieve the optimum image. In manual mode it is possible to manually control the level and span
to produce the image to your requirements. See Section 3.4.6.1 for definitions of level and span, and Section
3.4.9.1 for definitions of brightness and contrast. The preset brightness and contrast of the auto mode can be
adjusted to suit your preferences (See Section 3.4.9.1).

3.4.5 Directional Buttons
The directional buttons (up, down. left & right – see Figure 13) are used for three different functions.
1. If hot button 3 is set to either SP+ or SPX, the directional buttons control the position of the
selected temperature cursor. (Selection displayed above hot button 3).
2. If hot button 3 is set to L-S, “up” and “down” control the manual mode’s image temperature level,
and “left” and “right” control the temperature span. See Section 3.4.6.1 for details. If hot button 3
is set to B-C, “up” and “down” control the auto mode’s target image thermal brightness, and “left”
and “right” control the target thermal contrast. See Section 3.4.9.1 for details.
3. If the menu is displayed, the directional buttons control the movement of the highlighted cursor and
adjustment of the highlighted option (see Section 3.4.7).
Figure 13: Directional Buttons
3.4.6 Image Adjustment
3.4.6.1 Level and Span Definitions
When hot button 4 is set to manual the IRI 4010’s image settings can be manually controlled by adjusting the
level and span. When hot button 3 shows L-S, the “right” and “left” buttons respectively will increase and
decrease the span of the image (4˚C in the example in Figure 14). The “up” and “down” buttons will increase
and decrease the thermal level of the image (29˚C in the example in Figure 14).
Figure 14: Level and Span
The IRI 4010’s image settings are fully automatic when hot button 4 is set to auto. The auto mode
automatically adjusts the level and span to display a presentable image.

Figure 16: Menu Operation
3.4.7.1 Measurement Settings
•Emissivity – The user can select the emissivity for the material being imaged. To achieve
correct temperature measurement the emissivity value must be set correctly. An emissivity
lookup table is included in Section 6.
NOTE: Caution should be observed in using the emissivity control – the user should explore
the effect on the observed temperature of an object when different emissivities are
selected. Low values of emissivity should be used only with extreme caution as large
errors in temperature readings may be obtained with only small errors in emissivity.
Care should also be taken to avoid reflections from hot/cold objects in the vicinity.

IPU 40108
Page 12 of 29
•Reflected T – When the emissivity is set to values less than 1.0, measurement accuracy can be
further improved by setting the reflected temperature compensation. The reflected temperature is
the temperature being “seen” by the object being imaged. The value entered must be within the
range -20ºC to 200ºC or equivalent in ˚F or K.
•Spot X - Toggle the second temperature cursor (SPX) display on/off the screen. When SPX is
displayed the temperature difference (∆) between SP+ and SPX is also displayed.
•Area – This removes the temperature measurement cursors from the image, and instead displays
a small rectangle in the centre of the image. The cursor measurement readout changes to display
the maximum and the minimum temperature within the rectangle. When a saved image is
browsed in area analysis mode, the average temperature for the rectangle ( x
¯) is also displayed.
•Temperature Units – Select between degrees Celsius, degrees Fahrenheit and Kelvin.
3.4.7.2 Camera Settings
•Colour Palette – The user can select one of four possible colour options. They are Rainbow,
Ironbow, Greyscale (monochrome) or HC Rainbow (high contrast).
•Auto Power – Turns the imager off if it has been left on without a button press for 20 minutes.
•Factory Settings – For the convenience of the user, many settings are persistent, i.e. the settings
and values are remembered when the IRI 4010 is switched off. Selecting the factory settings
function restores the imager to its factory default settings.
•Image only - This option displays the image and the hot button labels only.
•Brightness & Contrast – This option selects whether the advanced user function of brightness
and contrast control is available on hotkey 3 when in auto mode (see Section 3.4.9.1).
•Cursor Reset – Select this option to restore the cursor (or 2 cursors) to their default positions.
3.4.7.3 Image Browser Menu
•This browser shows a list of file numbers found on the SD memory card, starting with the most
recent image. It is possible to scroll through the list and choose to view images or to delete
image files.
3.4.7.4 Clock/Calendar Settings
•Set Clock – The clock can be set so images are saved with the time and date of image capture.
•Date Format – choose between dd/mm/yy or mm/dd/yy.
•Time Format – 12 Hour / 24 Hour clock

3.4.8 Using the Laser Pointer
When the IRI 4010 is switched ‘ON’, the laser may be activated by pressing and holding down the red laser
button.
Figure 17: Laser Pointer
3.4.9 Advanced User Functions
3.4.9.1 Brightness & Contrast Definitions
The thermal brightness is the colour at the centre of the colour scale, (the default thermal brightness for the
rainbow colour palette is a yellow/green colour see Figure 18). Note that the brightness of the image does not
refer to the brightness of the screen. For a greyscale image, brighter means whiter, and for a rainbow image,
yellow is brighter than blue, and red is brighter than yellow. The contrast is the amount of the colour bar that
the image uses, and it uses the whole colour bar by default.
Figure 18: Brightness & Contrast Definitions
The target thermal brightness and contrast of the auto mode can be manually set when B – C is toggled to
“ON” in the camera settings menu. This enables hot button 3 to be toggled to B-C when the imager is in auto
mode. In this case the “right” and “left” buttons will increase and decrease the contrast of the image. The “up”
and “down” buttons will increase and decrease the thermal brightness of the image.
Laser Button
The laser pointer is used to illuminate and identify features in the image. The
laser pointer illuminates the area of the scene that coincides with the green
circle indicator on the display – see Figure 9.
NOTE: The laser is aligned to objects at a distance of 3m from the front of
the imager.
Brightness = (Centre of colour bar) = Yellow/Green by default
Contrast = (Amount of colour bar) = Whole colour bar by default

IPU 40108
Page 14 of 29
Edit the Contrast
Edit the Brightness
Default contrast
Default brightness
Increasing the contrast uses more of the outer colours
of the colour palette i.e. black and white in the
rainbow example.
Increasing the thermal brightness uses more of the
upper half of the colour bar.
Reducing the contrast uses less of the outer colours
of the colour palette, and uses more of the central
colours i.e. green and yellow in the rainbow example.
Decreasing the thermal brightness uses more of the
lower half. See the examples in Figure 18 for more
information.
Figure 19: These 6 figures show the effect of increasing and decreasing the auto mode’s brightness and
contrast.
The practical advantage of this is that the user can completely control the appearance of the image without
having to adjust the level and span manually when viewing different scene temperatures.
NOTE: The brightness and contrast can be reset back to the defaults by pressing hot button 4 to
manual mode, and then hot button 4 again back to auto mode.
