Annotating images
17
17.1 General
You can save additional information with an infrared image by using annotations. Annota-
tions make reporting and post-processing more efficient by providing essential informa-
tion about the image, e.g., conditions and information about where an image is taken.
Annotations are added to the image file, and can be viewed and edited in the image ar-
chive, and also when moving files from the camera to reporting software on the computer.
• You can set the camera to display annotation tools before an image is saved. Select
(Settings) > Save options & storage > Add annotation after saving.
• You can also add annotations to a saved image in the image archive.
Note This section describes the procedures for adding annotations to a saved image
in the image archive. Adding annotations when saving an image works in a similar way.
17.2 Adding a note
17.2.1 General
You can add a text note to the image file. Using this feature, you can annotate images by
entering free-form text.
17.2.2 Procedure
Follow this procedure:
1. Open the image in the image archive.
2. Push the navigation pad to display the top toolbar.
3. On the top toolbar, select the
icon and push the navigation pad.
4. On the right toolbar, select the
icon and push the navigation pad.
5. A soft keyboard is displayed, where you can enter text by touching the screen.
6. When completed, touch Done on the soft keyboard.
17.3 Adding a text comment table
17.3.1 General
You can save a table with textual information to the image file. This feature is a very effi-
cient way of recording information when you are inspecting a large number of similar ob-
jects. The idea behind using a table with textual information is to avoid filling out forms or
inspection protocols manually.
The camera ships with an example text comment table template. You can also create
your own templates. For more information, see section 17.3.3 Creating a text comment
table template, page 77.
17.3.2 Procedure
Follow this procedure:
1. Open the image in the image archive.
2. Push the navigation pad to display the top toolbar.
3. On the top toolbar, select the
icon and push the navigation pad.
4. On the right toolbar, select the
icon and push the navigation pad. This displays a
table.
