menu
On the Thermal Imager, a menu is a list of choices you can make for settings, such as time,
date, color palette, span and emissivity.
microbolometer
The type of thermal infrared detector used in the Thermal Imager. It is an array of 160 by 120
thermal sensors that respond to infrared radiation (IR).
MILWAUKEE
Short for Milwaukee Electric Tool Corp., www.milwaukeetool.com. The mailing address for the

The lowest ambient temperature to the highest ambient temperature in which you can operate
the Thermal Imager.
palette
A thermal image color scheme. Generally, black is the coldest and white is the hottest, but you
can choose the colors that represent the intermediate temperatures in the scale. Palette is one

Picture element. One “dot” on the display or in a digital image. Many pixels are used to form
an image.
precision
In a measurement device, precision is how close tightly grouped readings are. Accuracy
combines precision and how close the reading is to a perfect measuring device or a calibration
laboratory standard.
radiation, thermal
Infrared emission from a target area. Thermal radiation intensity drops off predictably with
distance.
range
The lowest measureable temperature to the highest measureable temperature.
