Thermal camera scene presets
Scene presets enable you to quickly select the best image
setting for the current environmental conditions.
During normal operation the thermal camera automatically
adjusts itself to provide a high-contrast image optimized for most
conditions. The Scene presets provide 4 additional settings that
may provide better imagery in certain conditions. The 4 modes
are:
Night Running — scene preset mode for night
conditions.
Day Running — scene preset mode for daytime
conditions.
Night Docking — scene preset mode for night docking.
Search — scene preset mode for identifying people or
objects in the water.
Although the preset names indicate their intended use, varying
environmental conditions might make another setting more
preferable. For example, the night running scene preset might
also be useful while in a harbor. You may find it beneficial to
experiment with the different scene presets to discover the best
preset to use for different conditions.
