IR Camera Mode

To prevent personal injury, see emissivity
information for actual temperatures. Reflective
objects result in lower than actual temperature
measurements. These objects pose a burn
hazard.
The IR Camera mode uses the ironbow palette. The display
shows a center point marker for the temperature
measurement. Temperature units of measurement are
selected in the Setup Menu. See Setup Menu on page 10 for
more information.
A temperature scale is shown on right edge of the display.
White is the highest temperature reading. Black is the lowest
temperature reading.
The Multimeter has a lens cover to protect the camera lens.
Open the lens cover before you capture an image. Close the
lens cover when not in the IR Camera mode.
Do not use magnets near the Multimeter as they can
interfere with the IR Camera.
To capture an image from the display:
1. Push (Capture).

With the Fluke Connect app you can expand your use of these
images. See Set Up for Fluke Connect App on page 5 for

All IR Cameras need sufficient warm-up time for the most
accurate temperature measurements and best image quality.
This time can often vary by model and by environmental
conditions. Although most IR Cameras are fully warmed up in
3-5 minutes, it is always best to wait a minimum of 10 minutes
if the most accurate temperature measurement is very
important to your application. When you move an IR Camera
between environments with large differences in ambient
temperature, more adjustment time can be required.
