7. EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY
The CABIN will support the use of an external USB power
supply (5V).
Connect an external power supply to the USB-C port of the CABIN
(4) and the device will automatically switch to an external power
supply while simultaneously charging the internal battery.
At this time, the Battery Icon on the display will become a
Charging Icon and the Power Indicator will turn red, then,
turn green after the Battery is fully charged.
If an external power supply is connected, but no Battery Pack
is installed, the Battery Icon will become a USB Icon and the
Power Indicator will turn green.
When the external power supply is disconnected the CABIN will
automatically switch to the Battery Pack and operation will
remain uninterrupted.
8. INSTALLATION AND USE
Power-On and Operation
WARNING! The lens of the CABIN must not be pointed at any
sources of intense energy such as laser-emitting devices or the
sun. This may damage the electronic components in the device.

countdown, the CABIN will go into Standby. You can wake the
CABIN from Standby by pressing the Power Button (5) briefly.
9. CALIBRATION
Image degradation is a normal function of a thermal imager,
and should not be considered a defect.
When the image is degraded or uneven it can be automatically
improved by calibration. Calibration unifies all pixels of the
detector and eliminates any temporary defects visable in
the image. There are three calibration modes:
Automatic
Shutter Calibration (A), Manual Shutter Calibration (M), and
Background Calibration (B). Select the desired mode in the
“Calibration Mode” of the Main Menu.
Automatic Shutter Calibration (A): The device will automatically
perform Shutter Calibration according to the Software Algorithm
without installing the Lens Cap (the Sensor automatically closes
its Internal Shutter). Before Automatic Shutter Calibration, there
will be a 5 second countdown next to the Shutter Icon in the
Status Bar. You can cancel the Calibration by pressing the
Power
Button (5) during the countdown. In this mode, you can also
press the Power Button for Manual Shutter Calibration. You will
hear a click during calibration, this is the internal shutter.
Manual Shutter Calibration (M): On the Home Screen, briefly
press the
Power Button (5) for Manual Shutter Calibration
without installing the Lens Cap (the Sensor automatically closes
the Internal Shutter). You will hear a click during calibration, this is
the internal shutter.
Background Calibration (B): Install the Lens Cap and press the
Power Button (5). A text prompt will appear on the Home Screen
“Cover lens during calibration!” The Background Calibration will
start after 2 seconds. Remove the Lens Cap after Calibration.
If you fail to cover the lens during a Background Calibration,
temporary defects will appear in the image until a proper
calibration occurs, this is not a defect and will not cause any
permanent damage.
