equipment, like television, monitor, etc.

3.2 Basic operation

3.2.1 Preparation

Take the device out of the carrying case and confirm that the power has

been turn off.

Unscrewed counterclockwise the cover of the battery compartment.

Install the battery into the battery compartment and lock the battery

steady with the nearby clamping-lock.

Close and screw clockwise to tighten the battery compartment cover.

3.2.2 Turn on the device

Press the power switch and keep holding for 3 seconds to start the

device and the OLED displayer will light.

The device will start up completely in 20 seconds.

Open the lens cover, aim the device at the area or the object you want

to observe, go on observation and operation.

3.2.3 Turn off the device

Close the lens cover, press and keep holding the power switch for more

than 3 seconds to turn off the device.

Unscrew the batter compartment cover.

Push aside the clamping-lock, and take out the battery.

Close and screw the cover of the battery compartment, place the device

and accessories into the carrying after the battery has been fully charged.

3.3 Function and operation

The operations of the device are very easy and you can control all

functions of the device via the keys of the main body or binocular. All functions

of the device are accomplished by the keys.

There are 4 keys on the shell and the distribution is presented in following

picture.

Distribution of key on main body

Function of each key is as follows.

Key

Function

Focus on the target far in the distance or switch to next items

of the menu.

－

Focus on the target near in the distance or switch to last

items of the menu.

Internal/external reference or quit the menu.

Enter the menu and switch to next menu.

The device mainly contains the following functions.

（1）Focusing

When you need to observe target in difference distance, you can do the

operation of focusing. If you want to observe the target far in the distance,

you can press the “+” key to adjust the focusing. If you want to observe the

target near in the distance, you can press the “-” key to adjust the focusing. If

it is difficult to judge the place of the target, you can press the “+” key and the

“-” key at the same time to focus on the target automatically.

（2）Internal/external reference

Internal or external reference can improve image quality and reduce the

pattern noise and image quality degrading which due to the environment

change. The device will execute the internal reference several times when

booting. You can execute the reference manually if you found the degradation

of image quality. Press the “A” key to execute the internal reference and it is

normal that the image will pause briefly during the internal reference process.

Press and keep holding the “A” key, the device will execute the external

reference automatically and the screen will show words “External B.REF”.

Close the lens cover before the external reference and it is no need to execute

the internal reference after the external reference.

If you observe from indoor to outdoor and there is a large difference in

temperature of indoor and outdoor and the effect of external reference is not

ideal, you can use the background with uniform temperature distribution and be

full of the screen to replace the lens cover to executed the external reference,

like the cloudless sky, wide area wall, ground, etc. Internal and external

reference is an important method of image quality adjustment that is necessary

to do repeatedly.

The effect after the internal or external reference calibration is shown like

the following pictures.

（3）Image polar setting

Thermal image has “BlackHot” and “WhiteHot” display modes. In

“WhiteHot” mode, the higher the temperature of the target, the more white the

target displays on the screen and the lower the temperature of the target, the

more black the target displays on the screen. The “BlackHot” mode is on the

contrary. You can use different mode according to personal habit. Press the

“M” key to enter the menu and press the “M” key continuously to switch to

“IMA_POLAR”, then press the “+” or “-” key can switch between the two modes.

WhiteHot BlackHot

（4）Digital zoom

In some case, the target is too small or in far distance, it is still difficult

to observe the details of the target even the target is in focus. In order

to identify the target, you can magnify the image to 2 times or 4 times

with digital zoom function. Press the “M” key to enter the menu and

press the “M” key continuously to switch to “ZOOM_IN”, and then press

the “+” key to zoom in the image or press the “-” key to zoom out the

image to original size.

（5）Level/Gain（contrast）adjustment

SATIR UTR

Press the “M” key to enter the menu and press the “M” key continuously

to switch to “LEVEL” or “GAIN”, and then press the “+” key to increase the level

or gain of the image, press the “-” key to decrease the level or gain of the image.

Press the “M” key to enter the menu and press the “M” key continuously

to switch to “AUTO_GAIN”, and then press the “-” key to set it to “OFF”.

（6）Txt polar setting

The txt display on the screen can switch between “Black” and “White”
