M12 160x120 Thermal Imager Operator’s Manual
resolution
Same as “thermal sensitivity.” The number of meaningful digits in a temperature reading, for
example, “10 °C, 10.1 °C, or 10.01 °C.” For the 10.01 °C reading, the resolution is “0.01 °C.”
saved image
An image written (recorded) onto the SD card installed in the Thermal Imager. Once saved,
images stay intact on the SD memory card when you turn off the Thermal Imager power.
scale
The Thermal Imager uses your choice of two temperature scales: °C for Celsius or °F for
Fahrenheit.
SD Card
Removable, reusable flash memory storage cards commonly used in digital cameras. The
Thermal Imager accepts SD (up to 4 MB) and SDHC (for “High Capacity,” greater than 4 MB
up to 32 MB) SD cards. It does not accept mini-SD or micro-SD cards.
sensor
Also called “detector,” or “thermal sensor,” the component that detects temperatures
throughout the field of view. Model M12 160x120’s detector is a microbolometer. (See
“microbolometer.”)
sleep mode
Automatic battery-conserving mode that begins after 5 minutes with no activity. The Thermal
Imager remains ready to operate, so warm-up is not required when in sleep mode. This is not
the same as auto power-off, which occurs after 20 minutes of no activity.
span
The width of the measurement window from the lowest measured temperature to the highest
measured temperature. The “Level” setting moves this window up or down in temperature.
spectral range
The IR bandwidth, or longest to shortest infrared wavelengths that the Thermal Imager
detects.
storage
Electronic memory (also called “Flash memory”) for saving the images and data created in
the Thermal Imager during a work session. The Thermal Imager uses a standard SD (Secure
Digital) removable, re-usable memory card as its sole storage system. Once images are
loaded onto a computer, you can erase the SD card.
