This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the handset kept 0cm from the body. NOTICE: Changes or modifications made to this equipment not expressly approved by the manufacture may void the FCC authorization to operate this equipment. CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS MADE TO THIS EQUIPMENT NOT EXPRESSLY APPROVED BY THE MANUFACTURE MAY VOID THE FCC AUTHORIZATION TO OPERATE THIS EQUIPMENT. To prevent eye damage and personal injury, do not look into the laser. Do not point the laser directly at people or animals or indirectly off reflective surfaces. Do not disassemble or modify the thermal device. Do not point the imager (with or without the lens cover) at intensive energy sources, e.g. devices that emit laser radiation, or the sun. This can affect the accuracy of the camera, and cause damage to the detector. Do not use the imager in an ambient temperature outside of the operation range. High/low temperatures can cause damage to the device. Always charge the battery in the special temperature range. The temperature range to charge the battery is 0 C to 40 C (32 F to 104 F). Charging the battery at temperatures outside this range can cause the battery to become hot or to explode. It can also decrease the performance or the life cycle of the battery. 12 TITAN HD USER MANUAL Do not continue to charge the battery if it does not become charged in the specified charging time. If you continue to charge the battery, it can become hot and cause an explosion or ignition. Injury to persons can occur. Do not attach the batteries directly to a cars cigarette lighter socket. Using the incorrect equipment can cause the battery to become hot or cause an explosion. Only use the correct equipment to discharge the battery. Using the incorrect equipment can decrease the performance or the life cycle of the battery. Using the incorrect equipment can cause the battery to become hot or cause an explosion. Do not connect the positive terminal and the negative terminal of the battery to each other with a metal object (such as wire). Damage to the batteries can occur. The battery contains safety and protection devices which, if they become damaged, can cause the battery to become hot, or cause an explosion or an ignition. Do not put holes in the battery with objects. Damage to the battery may occur. Do not hit the battery with a hammer or apply strong impacts or electric shocks to it. Damage to the battery may occur. Do not put the battery in or near a fire, stove or other high-temperature locations. Damage or ignition of the battery may occur. Do not put the battery in direct sunlight or other high-temperature locations. Damage or ignition of the battery may occur. Do not solder directly onto the battery. Damage to the battery may occur. Do not get water or salt water on the battery or device or permit the device or battery to get wet. Damage to the battery may occur. Remove any water or moisture on the battery before you install it. Damage to the battery may occur. If there is a leak from the battery and the fluid gets into the eyes, do not rub the eyes. Flush well with water and immediately get medical care. Always dispose of battery in accordance with local, state and federal regulations. Do not use the battery if, when used, charged, or placed in storage, there is an unusual smell from the battery, the battery feels hot, changes color, changes shape, or is in an unusual condition. Speak with a sales office if one or more of these problems occurs. Clean the case with a damp cloth and a weak soap solution. Do not use abrasives, isopropyl alcohol, or solvents to clean the case or lens/screen. THE ENCAPSULATION RATING IS ONLY APPLICABLE WHEN ALL THE OPENINGS ON THE CAMERA ARE SEALED WITH THEIR CORRECT COVERS, HATCHES, OR CAPS. THIS INCLUDES THE COMPARTMENTS FOR DATA STORAGE, BATTERIES, AND CONNECTORS. 13 TITAN HD USER MANUAL Be careful when cleaning the infrared lens. Do not clean the infrared lens too vigorously. This can damage the anti-reflective coating. Avoid condensation. Taking the imager from cold to hot will cause condensation in thermal imager. To protect the imager, power on the device and wait until it becomes warm enough for the condensation to evaporate. Keep device out of reach of children. After the eyepiece is used for long time, its contrast will be lowered, and the scene will be whitened. You can switch to the LCD display, and switch back to the eyepiece some time later. Storage: If you do not use the imager for a long period of time, put the device in a cool and dry environment. Batteries should be stored in an ambient temperature of -20 C to 20 C (-4 F to 67.9 F). Lithium batteries will discharge time and should be fully charged before storage. It is recommended to fully recharge the batteries every 3 months to prevent damage. Store the device in an ambient temperature of -40 C to 70 C
(-40 F to 158 F). 14 TITAN HD USER MANUAL 4. Technical Specifications Pixel Resolution Accuracy Temperature Range 1280 x 1024 1 C ( 1.8 F) or 1%

Repeat to power the flashlight off. 8-5 Focus Correct focus is important in all imaging applications. Correct focus makes sure that the infrared energy is correctly directed onto the pixels of the detector. This leads to accurate data collection. 8-5-1 Focus Modes The device comes with two focus modes: Image Focus and Laser-aided Focus. Image Focus mode must be selected in order to use auto focus. Switch to Laser-
aided Focus to use the laser to assist in focusing. Manual and continuous focus options can be controlled in either mode. Change the focus mode as follows:
1. Using the touchscreen, tap the gear icon to open the Settings Menu. The Function Settings tab opens by default. 2. Select either Image Focus or Laser-aided Focus.

TITAN HD USER MANUAL 8-5-2 Manual Focus Use the Focus Adjustment Ring to manually bring a scene into focus. The target area shows sharp and clear when in focus and becomes blurry when out of focus. Rotate the focus ring clockwise or counter-clockwise to focus a scene. The response of the focus mechanism is progressive, meaning that a faster rotation of the focus ring gives a disproportional higher speed of focus change. This allows for both fine adjustment with a relatively large, but slow rotation and rapid change with a smaller, but faster rotation. Furthermore, for a very slow rotation, the lens moves in very small, discrete steps allowing for controlled focus adjustment. The rotation steps are audible for those with visual impairment. MANUAL ADJUST CAN BE USED IN EITHER FOCUS MODE. 8-5-3 Auto Focus To automatically focus a scene push the Auto Focus button. The camera adjusts focus until the main target of the scene is in focus. Auto focus can be refined or canceled by using the Focus Adjustment Ring.

Radiometry 9-1 Introduction to Radiometry The basic reason for employing image processing programs when analyzing IR images is to have a fast and comprehensive means to determine the information content of an image in numerical terms. Radiometry is considered the base from which to conduct this analysis. Typically, converting the gray scale values to values of temperatures requires either a calibration of individual cameras or field calibration data. The method for calibrating images provided in this program is camera dependent because temperature calibration data is collected through an advanced calibration process at the factory and installed within the software program. Thermal devices looks for a very specific file in its structure and automatically uses it to perform calculations and produce temperature readings. If the device cannot find the calibration file the user cannot perform temperature analysis. If the file is corrupted temperature readings become skewed. Contact customer service if there is an issue. IF YOUR PACKAGE INCLUDES ADDITIONAL LENSES A SEPARATE CALIBRATION FILE IS REQUIRED FOR EACH LENS. THESE FILES ARE STORED ON THE DEVICE. CONTACT CUSTOMER SERVICE IS THERE IS AN ISSUE. 9-2 Detail Parameters Name, Date, and Time information is automatically recorded and stored when media is captured. GPS information is also captured if the feature is enabled. See Section 8-11-3-3 View Media Information to review media information. 9-3 Radiometry Correction The accuracy of temperature conversion is also dependent on the physics of the scene. These physical properties include humidity, emissivity and reflection of the target, the transmission in the intervening atmosphere, and the background/
foreground temperature within the scene. See Section 8-17-1-3 ROI Regional Environmental Parameters and Section 8-17-2 Global Environmental Parameters to adjust the value setting of an ROI. 92 USERS SHOULD ENSURE THE ROI AND GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL SETTINGS ARE SET APPROPRIATELY FOR THE SCENE AS THIS CAN IMPACT TEMPERATURE READINGS. TITAN HD USER MANUAL 9-3-1 Emissivity The correct emissivity value is important in order to receive the most accurate temperature measurement. Emissivity of a surface can have a large effect on temperatures the imager observes. To more accurately measure materials with a low emissivity, an emissivity correction is necessary. Adjusting the emissivity setting allows the imager to calculate a more accurate estimate of the actual temperature. Emissivity is set directly in the imager. The emissivity displays on the LCD screen as =x.x See Section 8-17-1-3 ROI Regional Environmental Parameters and Section 8-17-
2 Global Environmental Parameters to learn how to adjust the emissivity value of an ROI. The device features a built-in emissivity value table. Select a value as follows:
1. Using the touchscreen, tap the settings icon to open the Settings Menu. 2. Tap the Environmental Parameters icon:
3. Tap the drop-down arrow next to Emissivity of the ROI to be adjusted. A table appears. 4. Press-and-hold on the touchscreen; then, drag to scroll through the options. 5. Tap an option to select it. 6. Press the Previous button continuously to exit the menu. A chart containing common emissivity values appears on the next page. All objects radiate infrared energy. The amount of energy radiated varies based on the actual surface temperature and the surface emissivity of the object. The Thermal imager senses the infrared energy from the surface of the object and uses this data to calculate an estimated temperature value. Many common objects and materials such as painted metal, wood, water, skin, and cloth are particularly good at radiating energy and it is easy to get relatively accurate measurements. For surfaces that are good at radiating energy (high emissivity), the emissivity factor is >=0.90. This simplification does not work on shiny surfaces or unpainted metals as they have an emissivity of <0.6. These materials are not good at radiating energy and are classified as low emissivity. SURFACES WITH AN EMISSIVITY OF < 0.60 MAKE RELIABLE AND CONSISTENT MEASUREMENTS PROBLEMATIC. THE LOWER THE EMISSIVITY, THE GREATER POTENTIAL FOR ERROR WITHIN THE DEVICES CALCULATIONS. ERRORS MAY STILL OCCUR EVEN WHEN ADJUSTMENTS ARE PERFORMED PROPERLY. A CHART CONTAINING COMMON EMISSIVITY VALUES APPEARS ON THE NEXT PAGE. 93 TITAN HD USER MANUAL The following table gives typical emissivity of important materials:

THE LOWER THE EMISSIVITY, THE GREATER POTENTIAL FOR ERROR WITHIN THE DEVICES CALCULATIONS. ERRORS MAY STILL OCCUR EVEN WHEN ADJUSTMENTS ARE PERFORMED PROPERLY. 94 TITAN HD USER MANUAL 9-3-2 Distance and Angle of Capture Although distance usually does not affect the temperatures measured by the software it can be helpful to know the distance to the target location. Generally, the further away the IR sensor is from the target/background area, the less thermal contrast seen in the image. Angles of reflection can also affect the contrast. This is significant when the IR sensor is operated at low angles over water there may be no perceived thermal difference between the horizon and the water, i.e. the horizon can seem to disappear. Users can change their angle by changing where they stand or by attaching a camera to an unmanned aerial system. While there is an input box for distance there is not an input for angle. Use the text and voice annotation features of the device to create notes. See Section 8-17-1-3 ROI Regional Environmental Parameters and Section 8-17-
2 Global Environmental Parameters to learn how to adjust the distance value of an ROI. 9-3-3 Atmospheric Temperature The imager has temperature compensation to correct environmental sources of energy as this can affect the measurement results. Temperature readings are especially altered when the emissivity of the object is low or the difference between the object temperature and the ambient temperature is large. It is necessary to compensate the results to eliminate the influence of the environmental temperatures. To get a more accurate temperature measurements set the atmospheric temperature. Generally, atmospheric is equal to ambient temperature. temperature See Section 8-17-1-3 ROI Regional Environmental Parameters and Section 8-17-2 Global Environmental Parameters to learn how to adjust the atmospheric temperature value of an ROI. 9-3-4 Reflected Temperature Users can compensate for sources of energy reflected off objects being measured to eliminate the influence of environmental temperatures. Often, the reflected temperature is equivalent to the ambient temperature. See Section 8-17-1-3 ROI Regional Environmental Parameters and Section 8-17-2 Global Environmental Parameters to learn how to adjust the reflected temperature value of an ROI. 95 TITAN HD USER MANUAL 9-3-5 Atmospheric Transmittance Electromagnetic radiation flows through the atmosphere everyday. Most of this energy is absorbed, but some of the radiation makes it though. This is called transmission and refers to the absorption, scattering, and reflection ability of the surrounding atmosphere. Visible light is one of the wavelengths that makes it through generally unabsorbed. Transmission can cause abnormal readings if not properly accounted. See Section 8-17-1-3 ROI Regional Environmental Parameters and Section 8-17-2 Global Environmental Parameters to learn how to adjust the atmospheric transmittance value of an ROI. 9-3-6 Humidity Humidity remains in the atmosphere even on bright days. Water of all three states can be found naturally in the atmosphere: liquid (rain, fog, and clouds), solid (snowflakes, ice crystals), and gas (water vapor). Water in any state is an obstacle to accurate temperature measurements. When the wave passes through the water particles, a part of its energy is absorbed and a part is scattered. Therefore the electromagnetic wave is attenuated. Use the text and voice annotation features of the device to create notes. 96 TITAN HD USER MANUAL 10. Cleaning and Maintenance 10-1 Cleaning the Germanium Lens Do not use corrosive chemicals on the optical glass components. The germanium window surface is coated with anti-reflection coating. Dust, grease, and fingerprints will produce harmful substances and lead to a decline in performance, or cause scratches. If dirt is found, please use the following methods:
1. Use a blown balloon or a soft brush to clean the lens surface to avoid dust particles scratching the anti-reflection film on lens surface during the wiping process. 2. Use a soft cotton or microfiber cloth or lens wiping paper and dip in distilled water. Gently wipe the lens surface from the middle to the edge, paying attention to not crack the lens, or use too much liquid. If the lens is still not clean, replace the cloth and repeat the wiping process. 10-2 Disinfecting the Camera Surface Do not use corrosive cleaning solutions on the optical glass components. It is recommended to disinfect the camera surface regularly with a non-corrosive sanitizing product. Follow the directions provided by the manufacturer of the cleaning solution. Adhere to the sanitation protocols and cleaning schedule set forth by the employer. 10-3 Device Calibration It is recommended to have the device(s) re-calibrated annually. Contact customer service to schedule maintenance. 10-4 Storage When the equipment is not in use, the device should be placed in a dust-free and moisture-free environment with a stable temperature and humidity. DO NOT USE CORROSIVE CLEANING SOLUTIONS ON THE OPTICAL GLASS COMPONENTS. DISINFECT THE CAMERA SURFACE REGULARLY WITH A NON-
CORROSIVE SANITIZING PRODUCT. CALIBRATE YOUR DEVICES ANNUALLY. CONTACT CUSTOMER SERVICE TO SCHEDULE MAINTENANCE. 97 TITAN HD USER MANUAL 11. Troubleshooting If the user encounters any problems while using the imager, refer to the following options. If the problem persists, disconnect the power and contact the customer support department. 11-1 Thermal imager does not power on Ensure battery is installed Replace old battery Charge battery 11-2 Thermal imager shuts off unexpectedly Replace old battery Charge battery 11-3 No thermal image Open the lens cap If lens is foggy, use professional equipment to clean the lens 11-4 Unclear or dark visible images Turn on lights in imaging area Turn on device light If lens is foggy, use professional equipment to clean the lens 11-5 Temperature readings are incorrect 98 Turn off the device; then, turn it back on Ensure the correct temperature range is selected The default temperature range is -20C to 150C (-4F to 302F) When measuring high temperature objects ensure the temperature range is set to the 150C to 800C (302F to 1472F) range Device is at proper height Ensure device is in focus Adjust emissivity Adjust for ambient temperature Perform a NUC operation TITAN HD USER MANUAL 11-6 Camera out of focus Adjust focus ring 11-7 Memory card error Insert memory card 99 TITAN HD USER MANUAL 12.
