Producing a Temperature Graph (live imaging):
•
Use the ‘temperature graph toggle’ on the Tool Bar, or select Temperature
Graph from the
View
menu. See
Figure 13
for more information on the Tool
Bar.
•
The displayed window layout with temperature graph will look like
Figure 14
.
•
The time axis of the graph can be adjusted by selecting values from the
“Temperature Graph time scale” function in the controls window.
Figure 14: Image display, control panel and temperature graph.
The window may be re-sized to optimise viewing of the display and status display.
Temperature measurement cursors can be added (and removed) from the image by
“double clicking” the mouse cursor over the desired part of the image. Up to 10
cursors can be selected and each one is displayed in a different colour. To read the
temperature of a cursor, use the mouse to click on the corresponding oval colour as
displayed in the “temperature display window”, see
Figure 14
. The temperature
graph plots will also be displayed in the same colour as the selected cursors.

Use of PC software with no Thermal Imager connected
The software may be used to examine stored snapshots without the imager connected.
When the program is launched, the image window should be closed. From the
File
menu, select “
Open”
and a list of saved ‘.
snp’
files will be available from the last folder
saved to.
Select the required ‘.snp’ file and the image will be presented in a window with all the
status data from when the scene data was recorded. The information in the image
window may be manipulated as for live images, except that a temperature graph will
not be available, integration of multiple images will not be possible and the continuous
auto gain function is not required.
