M-Series Overview
Caution: The M-Series requires a power supply of 12 – 24V DC nominal, 5 Amp
maximum. Absolute voltage range: 10 – 32V DC. Operating the camera outside of
the specified input voltage range or the specified operating temperature range
can cause permanent damage.
Proper Disposal of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE): The European
Union (EU) has enacted Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive
2002/96/EC (WEEE), which aims to prevent EEE waste from arising, to
encourage reuse, recycling, and recovery of EEE waste, and to promote
environmental responsibility.
In accordance with these regulations, all EEE products labeled with the “crossed
out wheeled bin” either on the product itself or in the product literature must not be
disposed of in regular rubbish bins, mixed with regular household or other
commercial waste, or by other regular municipal waste collection means. Instead,
and in order to prevent possible harm to the environment or human health, all
EEE products (including any cables that came with the product) should be
responsibly discarded or recycled.
To identify a responsible disposal method where you live, please contact your
local waste collection or recycling service, your original place of purchase or
product supplier, or the responsible government authority in your area. Business
users should contact their supplier or refer to their purchase contract.
System Description
M-Series is a maritime thermal imaging system for use on most types of vessels.
The system is available in two configurations:
• The single payload models have a single thermal imaging camera.
• The dual payload models are equipped with both a thermal imaging camera
and a visible-light (DLTV) camera, either low-light or color.
The infrared (IR) thermal camera provides night-time imagery, even in total
darkness, based on temperature differences. The thermal camera provides a
clear video image even under completely dark conditions because it is sensitive
to thermal infrared energy. The infrared camera supports either 2X or both 2X and
4X zoom, depending on the model.
On dual payload models, the two integrated DLTV camera options provide either
black and white imagery in low-light conditions or color imagery. The DLTV
cameras provide enhanced navigational abilities in a variety of conditions, for
example, during twilight hours or when operating along intercoastal waterways
and near harbor entrances. The color camera dual payload model supports
continuous zoom.

M-Series Overview
8432-0003-00-10 Rev 150 — M-Series Operator’s Manual
One M-Series model (indicated by an S suffix) includes a mechanical
stabilization feature that improves image stability. The stabilization feature
compensates for the motion of the vessel and improves the utility of the camera
video output when operating in rough seas or swell conditions.
For a complete list of models and a comparison of key features, see “Feature
Comparison of M-Series Models” on page 68. The differences in camera
operation are noted in relevant locations in the manual.
The M-Series consists of two main components:
• The gimbal assembly, also known as the pan/tilt camera unit. A gimbal is a
pivoted support that allows the rotation of an object such as a ship’s compass
about a single axis.
• The joystick control unit (JCU).
In this manual, the term camera may refer to the entire camera unit/gimbal
assembly, or it may refer specifically to either the thermal camera or the visible
camera, depending on the context in which it is used.
The M-Series gimbal and JCU are network devices. In some installations,
additional cameras and JCUs will also be used, and networking equipment such
as Power over Ethernet (PoE) switches may be used to interconnect these
components.
M-Series Gimbal Assembly
The gimbal assembly has a pan/tilt mechanism that allows the camera to rotate
continuously 360° in azimuth, and to tilt plus or minus 90° in elevation. The
M-Series imaging sensors are contained in the ball of the gimbal assembly.
The thermal infrared camera uses an uncooled vanadium oxide (VOx) detector
sensitive to long-wave infrared (LWIR) thermal energy. The camera is sensitive to
the thermal energy that comes from the movement of atoms and molecules that
make up whatever the camera is pointed at. All objects emit (or radiate) thermal
energy, even cold objects like icebergs.
Video Options
The M-Series gimbal assembly has either one or two video cables:
• The cable labeled IR is for the composite—also known as analog—video
signal from the thermal (infrared) camera. This is the only cable on single
payload cameras.
• On dual payload models, the cable labeled VIS/IR is for video from either the
thermal camera or the visible camera. You use the JCU to determine which
output displays.
The video from dual payload models can be output on one or two video displays.
If only a single display with a single video input is available, connect the cable
labeled VIS/IR to the display. If the display has more than one video input, both

M-Series Overview
video cables can be connected to the same display. In this type of installation,
switching between the thermal and visible video channels is performed with the
display controls, rather than the JCU.
Ball-Up and Ball-Down Installation
In most installations, the M-Series is mounted upright on top of a mounting
surface, with the pan/tilt base below the camera; this is known as the ball-up
orientation. Optionally, the unit can be hung upside down or ball down. When
installed ball down, you must configure the camera in the ball-down mode, so the
video is properly displayed and the pan/tilt controls operate as expected (see
page 38 for details on configuring this setting).
Unless otherwise noted, this manual assumes an upright installation.
Warning: The M-618CS model, which is a mechanically stabilized system, must
be installed in the ball-up orientation.
Joystick Control Unit (JCU)
The JCU is your primary method of controlling the camera. The JCU is used to
power up the camera or put it in a standby state, to operate the pan (rotation) and
tilt movement of the camera, to zoom the IR camera (and on the M-618CS model,
the color visible camera), and to configure the camera settings by means of
on-screen menus. The JCU connects to the camera using an Ethernet network
connection, and that same connection provides power to the JCU.
The JCU has various buttons, an LCD display, and a joystick puck that is used to
control the pan/tilt movement and to navigate through the on-screen menus. The
puck can be rotated in either direction, moved left and right or forward and back,
and pushed in (like a button) and pulled up. Chapter 2, "M-Series Joystick Control
Unit," on page 15 describes the features of the JCU in detail.
The M-Series uses on-screen symbols to indicate the camera position (azimuth)
and various system settings that have been enabled. These symbols are
introduced in “Video Display” on page 10 and are further explained throughout
this manual in the discussion of related functions.
Multiple Cameras, JCUs, and Other Devices
In some installations, the system may include additional components, such as
additional cameras or JCUs, video equipment, or network equipment. More than
one JCU can be used to control the camera, and more than one display can be
used to view the video. If you have a PC on the same network as the camera and
JCU, you can use the PC to control and configure the system, the same as you
would with the JCU. Using PCs is described in Chapter 5, "M-Series IP Interface
and PC Operations," on page 51.
Also a single JCU can be used to control more than one camera. In this case, you
select which camera to control through a menu on the JCU. In the LCD display of
the JCU, the name of the currently selected camera is displayed. When more than

one JCU is installed in the system, a camera can respond to commands from any
JCU that is in the system.
Typically, the JCU and the video monitor are mounted in close physical proximity,
as a pair, so you can immediately see the changes on the video screen when you
use the JCU to change the camera position (pan or tilt).
In a simple installation, the JCU can be directly connected to the camera with the
supplied double-shielded Ethernet cable. In this case, the JCU draws its power
from the camera. In more complex installations, the camera and JCU can be
interconnected using a network switch. If the network switch does not have
Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability, a PoE injector can be used to provide
power to the JCU. FLIR PoE injectors are available from your FLIR authorized
dealer or integrator.
Contact FLIR for more information regarding available accessories including
JCUs, PoE equipment, video distribution amplifiers, cables, connectors,
mounting hardware, and so on. Contact information is listed on the back of this
manual.
Video Display
The M-Series thermal imager does not produce images from visible light like an
ordinary camera does or like the human eye does. Rather, it uses energy
contained in the infrared band to produce images by sensing subtle differences in
temperature and generating images based on those differences.
Thermal Imaging
The thermal imaging camera relies on the fact that all objects, even very cold
objects like ice, emit thermal energy in the portion of the infrared spectrum that
this camera can see, the long wave infrared (LWIR). Therefore, unlike an
illuminated infrared camera, the thermal imaging camera does not need an
additional active illumination source and images are based on directly radiated
rather than reflected energy.
When the thermal camera is in white-hot mode, the warm objects in the scene
display as white, or lighter shades of gray, and cold objects display as black or
darker shades of gray. When you switch the video polarity, this is reversed.
This is why you will see hot objects such as parts on an outboard motor that
appear white (or black, or red depending on the video image mode selected),
while the puddles of water and other cold objects appear dark (or cool). Scenes
with familiar objects will be easy to interpret with some experience. The camera
automatically optimizes the image to provide you with the best contrast in most
conditions.

On-Screen Menu
The on-screen menu appears when the MENU button is pressed. Menu entries
are selected using the joystick puck. Pressing the MENU button again removes
the menu from the screen.
Position Icon
The position indication shows the azimuth (direction) of the camera relative to the
vessel. The shaded triangle shows the approximate camera field of view (FOV).
JCU Icon
A single JCU icon indicates only one JCU is connected to the camera unit. If
more than one JCU is discovered, the multiple JCU icon appears.
PC Icon
The PC icon indicates that a PC on the network has a connection with the
camera. When you have integrated a PC into your network, you can manage the
camera settings from a page that displays in a Web browser, rather than using
the JCU. In some situations, this may be a more convenient way of controlling
the camera. Using this page is described in Chapter 5, "M-Series IP Interface
and PC Operations," on page 51.
SCENE Icons
Pressing the SCENE button cycles through four preset automatic gain control
(AGC) settings, which change the image gain and level settings. Regardless of
the scene setting, the thermal camera automatically adjusts to the scene to
provide a balanced, high-quality image. However, you may prefer an image that
has more or less contrast than the default one provided, and the SCENE button
provides that type of fine adjustment.
Which setting you use depends on personal preference and environmental
conditions; you may like the way the Man Overboard setting looks, even though
you are running on open water during the daytime.
Rearview Icon
The rearview icon indicates the rearview mode option has been selected in the
System Settings menu. The rearview setting flips the video image horizontally left
to right. The image on the display provides the same perspective as a rear view
mirror in a vehicle; objects off the stern on the starboard side of the vessel are
displayed on the right hand side of the video. See page 40 for details on
configuring this setting.
Home Icon
The home icon appears momentarily to indicate the camera is in the home
position. The icon flashes when a new home position is set.

Zoom (2X or 4X)
Pressing and holding the puck causes the thermal camera to digitally zoom in to
2X magnification. On the M-6x models, pressing and holding again causes the
thermal camera to digitally zoom in to 4x magnification (the M-3x models do not
support this). Pull and hold the puck to zoom out the thermal camera.
On the M-618CS model only, the color daylight camera zooms correspondingly
with the changes to the thermal camera.
Image Frozen
The image frozen icon appears when the puck has been double clicked (pressed
two times in quick succession), which momentarily stops the video. Pressing any
button or moving the puck switches back to live video.
This feature is available on the thermal camera in all models, and is available on
the DLTV camera in the M-618CS model. It is not available on the DLTV camera
in other models.

CHAPTER 2 M-Series Joystick Control
Unit
JCU Introduction
The JCU is the primary method of controlling the M-Series camera. You use it to
move the camera (pan or tilt), electronically zoom the camera, switch between
infrared and visible-light cameras, adjust the image settings, and access the
on-screen menus.
This chapter describes how to use the JCU buttons to operate the camera
features. Some of these features vary depending on the specific way your system
has been configured. The various configuration settings and how they affect
operation are all discussed in Chapter 4, "M-Series System Configuration," on
page 31. When specific settings affect a particular button, you can refer to that
chapter for additional details.
JCU Buttons
All of the buttons on the JCU perform multiple functions. In most cases, each
performs one function when it is pressed briefly (short press) and a different
function when it is pressed and held (long press). This flexibility enables a simple
device to support a set of complex, rich features.

In the following discussion, the short press action is described first, followed by
the long press. In addition, enabling some system features can affect how the
buttons work. Table 2.1 on page 19 summarizes the two actions for each button.
Power/DIM Button
Short Press
A short press of the Power/DIM button cycles through the four levels of
brightness for the JCU display. The JCU controls are backlit to make them easier
to see at night. Use this button to adjust the brightness of the JCU backlighting
for your comfort.
Long Press
Pressing and holding the Power/DIM button is used to “wake up” the camera,
causing it to go from standby mode to powered on. It is also used to put the
camera back in standby mode as well as complete other system functions such
as calibrating the JCU and associating the JCU with a camera. These functions
are described in more detail on page 23.
MENU Button
In many cases, you will not need to modify the factory default configuration
settings of your system. However, the system gives you many options that you
may want to tailor to your own needs. These settings are available through
on-screen menus. Use the MENU button to turn these menus on or off.
Note: The MENU button does not have a press and hold action.
When the on-screen menu is displayed, use the joystick puck to navigate through
the menus and select various menu entries. Each menu item is discussed in
detail in Chapter 4, "M-Series System Configuration," on page 31, which explains
how to navigate using the menus in more detail.

USER Button
The USER button is a programmable one-touch button that lets you quickly
access the most common or favorite settings or functions. You configure the
short-press action of this button from the User Programmable Button menu entry
(see page 36).
Short Press
A short press of the USER button is initially configured to invert the video polarity
setting from white-hot to black-hot. You can choose from a number of other
options.
Long Press
Pressing and holding the USER button displays the on-screen menu for
programming the button. The menu can also be accessed by pressing the MENU
button and then scrolling down to the User Programmable Button entry.
SCENE Button
Short Press
A short press of the SCENE button cycles through four preset automatic gain
control (AGC) settings, which change the image gain and level settings:
• Night Running
• Night Docking
• Day Running
• Man Overboard
The M-Series automatically adjusts to changing scene conditions to provide a
high-contrast image that is optimized for most conditions. The preset AGC
settings for each scene have been optimized to offer the most balance and high
quality image for specific conditions. Which setting to use depends on personal
preference and environmental conditions.
You may like the way the Night Docking setting looks, even though you are
running on open water during the daytime. Experiment with the different settings,
and find out for yourself which settings works best in different conditions.
Long Press
On dual payload models, pressing and holding the SCENE button switches
between the thermal and visible-light cameras for the video signal on the VIS/IR
cable.

COLOR Button
Short Press
Pressing the COLOR button switches the thermal camera video display. The way
the button works depends on the setting of Enable(Disable) Color Thermal Video
(see page 34).
• When Color Thermal Video is disabled, pressing the COLOR button lets you
choose between white/black or red/black display options.
• When Color Thermal Video is enabled, pressing the COLOR button cycles
through five preset color palettes.
The default color scheme is red/black since the equipment is often used at night
in the darkness and the red-hot image can help preserve the user’s night vision.
Based on personal preferences, one of the other color settings (or color palettes)
may be chosen as a default.
Note: The USER button is configured to invert the video polarity setting by
default, so it changes the infrared imagery from white-hot (red-hot) to black-hot.
Long Press
Press and hold the COLOR button to calibrate the thermal cameras, also called
flat field correction. This process can improve the quality of the thermal image by
recalibrating a more uniform output.
HOME Button
Short Press
A short press of the HOME button moves the camera to its home position. The
home position is a programmable preset position—by default, straight ahead and
level with the horizon—that operators can use as a reference. Home is the
position the camera will most likely be in when it is in use.
Long Press
Pressing and holding the HOME button sets the home position. First use the
puck to point the camera’s line of sight to the position you want to set as home.
Press and hold the HOME button for 3 seconds; the home symbol will flash on
the screen when the new home position is set. When you want to move the
camera to this position, press and release the HOME button. When you press the
HOME button, the home icon appears on the screen briefly.
The home position is not the same as the stow position. The home position is the
position the camera will most likely be in when it is in use. The stow position is
the preferred position when the camera is not in use, for protecting the camera
optics. Both positions are programmable by the use—the home position through
the HOME button and the stow position using the on-screen menus.
