Transmission/Transmittance Adjustment

When you do infrared inspections through infrared-
transparent windows (IR windows), not all of the infrared
energy emitted from the objects of interest is transmitted
through the optical material in the window. If the
transmission percentage of the window is known, you can
adjust this percentage in the Imager or in the SmartView
software. Adjustment of the transmission correction can
make the accuracy of the temperature measurement better
in many situations.
To adjust the transmission percentage:
1. Go to Measurement > Transmission.
2. Push
/
to adjust the percentage between 10 %
and 100 %.
3. Push  or  when done.
If Display Information is set to Display All, you
see the information about current transmission
correction as τ = xx.

(AVG), and minimum (MIN) temperature measurement in
that area. When in AUTO Level and Span mode, the
Imager automatically sets the level and span according the
infrared scene within the parameters of the Center Box.

scene within the Center Box.
