M7815 Thermal Imager
Quick Start Guide
Introduction
The M7815 represents another milestone in innovative 
infrared thermometry. It is an extremely lightweight, 
high-performance handheld IR camera offering capabili-
ties normally found in models costing much more. This 
fully-radiometric camera is ergonomically designed for 
comfortable one-handed point-and-shoot operation and 
features 320x240 resolution at a 60Hz refresh rate. 
It measures the passive infrared radiation emitted by the 
target surface and converts this radiation into a two-
dimensional image relating to the temperature distribu-
tion at the target surface. This temperature distribution 
can then be viewed in full color or grayscale through the 
flip-up 3.5inch TFT LCD display, which is located on the 
top of the IR camera. The on-board diagnostic software 
provides an intuitive menu system, which can be accessed 
using the button control panel located on the back of the 
camera. 
Completely self-contained in a highly-durable hous-
ing, it is both dust-proof and weather resistant, suitable 
for indoor or outdoor use. It is battery operated, uses 
advanced uncooled UFPA microbolometer technol-
ogy, and stores 14-bit images and data to internal flash 
memory. The images and image data can then be trans-
ferred to an external device using the USB-2 port.

Hatch
The LCD Display Hatch is used to protect the 
LCD screen and camera interfaces. It is also 
used to place the camera in power standby 
mode to conserve battery power and to 
eliminate detector stabilization time when 
making intermittent measurements. 
Lemo 
Connec-
tor
Used to connect to an RCA adapter for NTSC/
PAL composite video output functionality. 
Also compatible with an S-Video adapter for 
S-Video functionality. It can also be used for 
connecting to a remote LCD.
