4.2 FFC
A FFC (flat field correction) is an offset calibration that is triggered at powerup, after a set
change in temperature, and periodically throughout the camera operation. The FFC
adjusts internal settings that compensate for environmental temperature changes, camera
temperature changes, and other conditions that impact camera operation. This maintains
image quality by removing noise and other artefacts that may occur during use in dynamic
operational conditions. The Vue TZ20-R is always in auto FFC mode, but a manual
trigger can be initiated by pressing the FCC icon. Note that when a FFC is executed, the
live image will be paused momentarily.
4.3 AGC
Lock/Unlock
The AGC Lock/Unlock allows the image to hold a constant temperature-to-color pallet in a
dynamic moving scene. This allows the user to identify objects in the camera field of view
with specific infrared radiation and facilitates locating items in specific scenes.
4.4 Color
Palettes
Multiple color palettes are available on the FLIR Vue TZ20-R. The User’s desired color
palette is saved with JPG and MOV files, but not with TIFF files. The palette icon
indicates the current color pallet. The user may select the color palette by pressing the
icon. Adjusting the palette can aid in interpreting the thermal images. More information
regarding selecting the appropriate color palette can be found at
