6. INTRODUCTION
6 Introducon
The Workswell GIS-320 gas imaging system is the perfect soluon for leak detecon. Its unique pairing of both
thermal and digital cameras makes it a versale instrument. The GIS-320’s infra-red camera can be used to
idenfy the escape of specific gases, as well as their presence in the air. It can also enhance environmental
safety tesng. This posions the Workswell unit as an aid in environmental protecon, as well as in human
health and safety efforts.
The GIS-320 can detect a wide spectrum of gases which are invisible to the naked eye. Moreover, the GIS-320
has a high sensivity, with a detecon range of between 3.2 – 3.4 µm.
The Workswell GIS-320 is the ideal soluon when paired with unmanned air vehicles (drones/UAV systems). Both
can be fully operated with one standard RC controller.
Paired with the GIS 320 OS the whole system is capable of capturing, transferring, storing and processing of
radiometric (temperature) data directly from an unmanned aerial vehicle (drone) and display of the data on the
screen of the UAV remote controller in real me. The system also offers a variety of measurement funcons,
colour palees or alarm (security) modes, which can be combined with a visible spectrum camera.

6. INTRODUCTION
Workswell GIS 320 is designed in a way which allows control of all of its funcons during the flight. The system
has digital inputs, which are fully compable with standard RC receivers that support S.BUS. Two channels serve
as navigaon buons in the menu, the rest are shortcuts for the selected funcons (image capturing, video
recording, palee switching, zoom and others).
The system offers a digital video output. Both visible and thermal spectrum images can be displayed on the
screen at the same me.

Figure 7.4 – Connecng GIS 320 using USB On-The-Go
Warning: Do NOT connect GIS 320 to any other powered device (such as PC) through the full size USB
port on the rear of GIS 320 - only the side Micro USB port can be used for mass storage access. As the
rear USB port is powered, connecon to another powered USB port can lead to permanent damage to
either device.
Warning: Do NOT format the SSD of the camera as a device connected to the PC via USB OTG! Formang
the SSD in this manner will void the warranty and the camera will need to be sent for repair. Use only the
firmware GUI of the camera to format the SSD, while the camera is not connected to any other device.
7.6 SD Card
The Workswell GIS 320 can be oponally fied with a MicroSD memory card as a storage medium. Most generic
MicroSD cards should be compable. Video recordings cannot be saved directly to the MicroSD card and have
to be recorded only to internal storage (but can be moved over to the MicroSD off-line within the device itself).
To install the MicroSD card simply insert it into the MicroSD slot on le side of the device. Be mindful of the
SDCard orientaon; contacts should be facing upwards.
The MicroSD card should be recognized by the device even if inserted with the system already running. The
MicroSD card should only be removed with the device either unpowered, or aer the SD card is manually un-
mounted in the Memory menu.
7.7 Power Supply
The Workswell GIS 320 system can be powered through a +9 to +36 VDC connector on the back panel. The back
panel DC connector is compable with a 5.5 mm/OD (outer diameter) and 2.5 mm/ID (inner diameter) plug,
where the inner contact is +9 to +36 VDC and the shell is GND.

7.8 Turning the System OFF
To turn the system off, switch the buon on the top of the camera into OFF posion to stop the cryogenic cooler
of the camera. Then simply unplug the power supply from the device.
It is not recommended to oen turn on and off the cryogenic cooling on the thermal camera as this might shorten
the lifespan of the device.

8. DIGITAL INPUTS
8 Digital Inputs
8.1 S.BUS Input
The S.BUS input port can be used. It is a standard used for Futaba RC controllers. Only the first version of S.BUS
is supported.
Mechanically, a common servo-wire like 3 pin jumper cable connector is used for S.BUS.
Figure 8.1 – S.BUS pinout - 3 pin servo cable.
Pin Descripon
1 GND
2 VCC 5V out
3 S.BUS in
Warning: The +5V wire on the S.BUS input is intended for powering otherwise unpowered transceivers
and converters from GIS 320. If your transceiver or convertor is powered otherwise, do NOT connect the
+5V wires and leave them unconnected instead, only connecng the GND and S.BUS pins. If the +5V wires
are connected, damage of either device might occur.
S.BUS allows transmission of many servo-like channel PWM signals through a simple three pin connecon. The
device is compable with S.BUS enabled receivers and converters such as the Futaba SBE-1 PWM-S.BUS con-
verter.
