Therm-App MD User manual

Quick Start Guide
Congratulations on purchasing Therm-App®MD for Thermography —
The thermography camera that is changing the way thermal imaging
technology works.

Your Therm-App®MD comes with the following items:
• USB-OTG cables
• Quick Start Guide and Warranty
• Single Board Android Computer
Read This First
• The Therm-App MD device should be connected to the single board
computer (SBC) through the USB cable. The application that runs the
Therm-App MD is preinstalled on the SBC.
• Connect the SBC to a monitor through the HDMI plug and a mouse to a
USB plug and run the ThermApp aplication.
• Attach the Therm-App MD a tripod or any other fixed stationary point by a
¼ inch screw.
• Attach the SBC to a fixed location.

Take Note
• Therm-App MD can work as well with a standard Android device by downloading
the ThermApp application from Google Play and running the application. The
connection to the phone is via the USB OTG cable.
• Connect all the cabling before you connect the SBC to the power supply.
• In case the application is not installed on the SBC please contact Opgal and
the application would be sent to you.
Compatibility
• The Therm-App calibration tables are pre-installed on the SBC, if you
change the SBC, connect the SBC to an ethernet connection, plug-in the
Therm-App, and open the app to download the correct calibration tables.
• Therm-App MD was designed to work with the SBC and the preinstalled
software.
• Therm-App MD will only operate with mobile devices supporting USB OTG
(also called USB host).
• Therm-App MD requires a USB OTG cable supplied in the box.
• Therm-App MD will operate on Android version 6 (Marshmallow) and up.

Connecting the Android Single Board Computer (SBC)
• Connect the power cable to the SBC (1).
• Attach a mouse to the USB port (2).
• Attach a screen to the HDMI port (3).
• Turn on the SBC.
• With the cable supplied, connect the Therm-App USB OTG micro-USB
connection to the Therm-App device (5) and the USB to the SBC (4).
• The Therm-App application should automatically open (if not, open the
app manually) when the cable is connected from the Therm-App to the
computer.

Quick Tips
• To change the color palette, swipe the image right or left.
• To set the temperature threshold to “hot-red” and “cold-blue” palettes,
press the temperature reading in the middle of the temperature scale.
• To change the temperature from Celcius to Fahrenheit, click on the settings
button , click on Theromography Settings and then on Units.
• Pinch the touch screen for digital zoom.
• To use the automatic temperature range, press the current temperature
and then press the button on the dial.
• For best performance, the ambient room temperature should be 25° C.
• For optimal performance wait between 8-10 minutes from start-up, to allow
the Therm-App to reach an initial steady temperature state.
• In order to establish a baseline temperature, have 3 healthy people with
regular temperatures pass in front of the camera. Calculate from the
highest temperature of the 3 people and rasie the temperature dial 1.5° C
(see Configuring the Alert for instructions). This will be the threshold for
the alert for an individual with a fever.

• If you are using a 6.8mm lens, a person should stand 3-5m from the camera.
• If you are using a 19mm lens, a person should stand 6-10m from the
camera.
• The temperature indicator will give the surface temperature of the individual
with the hottest temperature in the field of view, or the configured region
of interest.
• When you receive an alert for an individual, check more thoroughly with a
thermometer.
• The Therm-App is affected by the ambient temperature of its surroundings
and it provides relative temperature readings, as opposed to a thermometer
which gives absolute temperature readings.
• While the baseline may change, the hightened temperature reading of a
feverish individual will give an alert.
• Note: The skin temperature of a person may be affected by; extreme
temperatures such as extreme cold or standing near a heat source,
drinking significant quantities of alcolhol, taking temperature altering drugs,
or strenuous exercise.

Configuring the Therm-App
• Click on Settings menu on the top left
of the Therm-App screen.
• This will open the settings menu.
• Click on General Settings.
• Ensure Time lapse is on Disable.
• The orientation of the video or
snapshot can be also be amended
from the General Settings menu,
by clicking on Video/Snapshot
orientation.
• Click on Alert mode settings (see
next page for instructions).

• Go to Advanced Parameters in
the Alert mode settings menu and
ensure the settings are as follows: -
• Check Play alert for the alert sound.
• - Detection duration is 0(seconds).
• - Alert delay is 0(seconds).
• - Recording time after detection
is 1(minute).
Configuring the Alert Mode
• These parameters
can be changed by
clicking on the name
of the setting and
clicking the -or +
symbol in the box
shown to the right.

Configuring the Thermography
• Click on the Quick Access Menu
• Click on Mode, then Thermography
Configuring the Emissivity
• Click on the Quick Access Menu
• Click on the Ruler and then on
Emissivity.
• Using the - or + symbols change the
Emissivity value to 0.98.
• This can also be done using the on
screen keyboard by typing the value
0.98 using your mouse pointer.

Configuring the Alert
• Click on the Quick Access Menu
• Click on the Gear symbol
• Click on Alert
• A box will appear on the screen with
small circles on each corner.
• Click and drag the box to the area of
interest.
• Click and drag the corners of the box
to resize the area of interest.
• Click the flame icon to establish
an alert above the threshold.
• Adjust the threshold temperature.

FAQ and Troubleshooting
• Does the camera work on other operating systems (iOS, Windows)? Therm-App is designed
exclusively to work on Android OS and Linux.
• How do I get my hands on the Software Developer’s Kit for this? We are happy to provide the SDK
for you. Contact your account manager to request the SDK agreement. Once signed we will provide you with
the SDK.
• Why is the temperature on the screen much lower than the average human temperature?
Thermal imaging processes an image based on the energy emitted off objects in the eld of view. This will
include a person, hot air from a heater, a computer or a cool gust of wind from an air conditioner. Unlike a
thermometer – which measures absolute temperature – a thermal imager will show the temperature in relative
terms. As in – what is my temperature relative to the person next to me. To do this we need to establish the
baseline temperature, either with a black body, or by using three healthy individuals as described in the setup
instructions. Once we’ve established that baseline, the temperature gradient can be measured very accurately.
• Why does the temperature change when a person stands at different ranges camera?
Since the camera is aggregating all the energy it is receiving in the eld of view, the temperature reading will
change. The optimal range for a 6.8 millimeter lens on the camera is 2 meters. It can be used effectively up to
5 meters, but it’s important to make sure the temperature of a person is measured at the exact distance that
the baseline was established. If your setup is designed to read temperatures of people at 3

meters, for example, make sure that it was calibrated during the setup for people at that range.
• Why can’t I hear the alert? Make sure the monitor you are using has speakers and alert sound is enabled
in app. The sound comes out through the HDMI cable. Thus it goes into the monitor.
• Why does my ThermApp crash when I turn it on? Check that the SBC resolution setting matches your
monitor resolution. If not, adjust accordingly.
• Why after some time does the temperature of the same individuals change? Although the
camera’s steady state takes about 8-10 minutes, it may take another hour or so to truly reach a point where
the temperature stops shifting. After an hour, it is recommended to check the temperature and recalibrate
the threshold accordingly. Also, since the ambient temperature changes during the day, it is recommended to
repeat the process once every 8 hours.
• Can the ThermApp be used outside? Yes. But you need to adjust the ambient temperature in accordance
with the outside temperature as it will probably not be 25 degrees, and you may need to recalibrate the
ambient temperature and the baseline as the day progresses and temperatures change. Also, avoid a eld of
view which is looking at a street in which vehicles (which are hot objects) could pass through it.
9) I’m not getting a temperature reading and the screen says “overflow”. This occurs if an object in
the screen surpasses 60°, which is beyond our calibration range. Remove the object and check again. If this
error still occurs, reinstall the Therm-App app from an APK provided to you by your account manager.
