Adjusting the Color Display
(Fig. 1, Fig. 7)
Depending on the measurement conditions,
different color palettes can make it easier to
analyze the thermal image and show objects
or circumstances more clearly in the display.
This does not affect the measured tempera-
tures. Only the way in which the tempera-
ture values are shown changes.
To change the color palette, remain in mea-
suring mode and press the Right-Hand Arrow
Button 11 or Left-Hand Arrow Button 15.

Superimposition of Thermal
Image and Real Image
(Fig. 1)
For improved orientation (= local assign-
ment of the thermal image displayed), with
matched temperature ranges, a visual real
image can additionally be inserted.
Note: The superimposition of the real image
and thermal image is accurate at a distance
of 22 in (0.55 m). If the tool is closer to or
further away from the object being mea-
sured, this may result in misalignment of the
real image and thermal image.
The thermal imaging camera offers you the
following options:
• Complete infrared image – Only the
thermal image is displayed.
• Picture in picture – The thermal image
displayed is cropped and the surround-
ing area is shown as a real image. This
setting improves the local assignment of
the measurement range.
Functions
• Transparency – The thermal image
displayed is placed on top of the real
image in such a way that it is slightly
transparent. This enables improved
detection of objects.
You can adjust the setting by pressing the
Up Arrow Button 8 or Down Arrow Button
13.
Fixing the Scale
(Fig. 1)
The color distribution in the thermal image
is adjusted automatically but can be fixed by
pressing the Right-Hand Function Button 10.
This enables a comparison to be made be-
tween thermal images taken under different
temperature conditions (e.g. when checking
several rooms for thermal bridges). It also
allows an extremely cold or hot object to
be hidden in the thermal image. This object
would otherwise distort the image (e.g. a
radiator as a hot object when searching for
thermal bridges).
To switch the scale back to automatic, press
the Right-Hand Function Button 10 again.
The temperatures are now dynamic again
and adapt to the measured minimum and
maximum values.
Measuring Functions
(Fig. 1)
To call up further functions that may be
helpful for the display, press the Measuring
Functions Button 9 button. Use the Left-
Hand Arrow Button 15 or the Right-Hand
Arrow Button 11 to navigate through the dis-
played options to select a function. Select a
function and press the Measuring Functions
Button 9 button again.
The following measuring functions are avail-
able:
• <Automatic> – Colors are distributed
automatically in the thermal image.
Note: To ensure high accuracy across
the entire measuring range, measure-
ments are carried out in two tem-
perature ranges. With the <Automatic>
measuring function, the measuring tool
automatically selects the appropriate
temperature range according to the
temperature distribution in the thermal
image. When doing so, it assesses how
