Automatic Save (Autosave) - InfraTec VARIOCAM HD User Manual

Thermography System VarioCAM
9. Introduction
If the VarioCAM ® HD is to be used as a "classic video camera" for real images ("visible"), the image mode
must be set to "Digital image" in the "Settings" menu (see chapter 9.1.2 Menu item "Mode" – page 37). It
is furthermore possible to record videos in the "Merge" image mode upon corresponding previous
selection. Since, taking the saved video data as a basis, no subsequent temperature correction for
changed parameters (emissivity, ambient temperature, transmission, path temperature) is possible, these
parameters should be set correctly before the recording procedure begins. Furthermore, possibly required
measurement definitions (measuring points or areas) should be defined before starting the measurement.
Image mode, temperature scale, palette settings and measurement definition can also be created or
changed during video recording, but they can no longer be changed in the saved video.

9.2.3.3 Automatic save (Autosave)

The "Autosave" function is used for serial recording of slower changing temperatures and simultaneously
saving thermal image and photo. The data and formats to be saved in turn are defined in the "Saving
format" menu item (see chapter 9.2.7, page 55). The available saving speed is influenced by the settings
made at this point, but also depends on the detector format and the properties of the used SDHC-card,
just like with real-time saving.

In order to start automatic saving, the start time (date, time) and the saving interval and the number of
thermograms to be saved must be defined initially. As an alternative to "Interval" and "Count", the
duration of series saving, otherwise calculated from the values for interval and number of images (Count),
can also be defined. Depending on the selected saving format, the minimum time interval is shown. When
opening the settings dialogue using the Enter button
camera clock are accepted as start time. After having accepted all settings and after closing the dialog by
clicking OK (or using the

Then, the dialogue must also be closed by clicking OK (or using the

the set point in time so that a value of "0/nnn" is shown below the palette. Series saving ends when the
defined number of images is reached and/or the selected duration has elapsed, but can also be stopped
by pushing the Enter button
aborting or continuing the current series measurement:
