Working with image modes

14.1 General
The camera captures both thermal and visual images at the same time. By your choice
of image mode, you select which type of image to display on the screen.
The camera supports the following image modes:
• Thermal MSX (Multi Spectral Dynamic Imaging): The camera displays infrared images
where the edges of the objects are enhanced with visual image details.
• Thermal: A full infrared image is displayed.
• Picture in picture: An infrared image frame is displayed on top of the visual image.
• Digital camera: The visual image captured by the digital camera is displayed.
NOTE
These image modes only work correctly for calibrated lenses. The lens that ships with the camera is
factory calibrated. To have a new lens calibrated, you must send in the camera and the lens to your local
service department.
NOTE
All thermal and visual information is stored when an image is saved. This means that you can edit the
image later, in the image archive or in FLIR Tools, and select any of the image modes.

This table explains the different types of image modes.
