Operation Display
The video output of the Recording box shows a live stream of the thermal imager. The temperatures are
indicated by a color palette. The color palette can be altered by the user (see section 4.7).
By default, a hot spot (red), cold spot (blue) and center spot (white) is displayed with temperature
information for supporting the drone pilot.
In addition, a notification area is displayed at the bottom of the screen providing user information. The
notification area provides information about user interaction, which is indicated as follows:
•
activating of external switches: Information to initiated actions is displayed (recording start e.g.)
•
plug in an USB memory drive: Information that stick is plugged is displayed
•
plug in a GPS-dongle: GPS coordinates are shown, if stick is initialized
•
plug in a GoPro camera: Visible video mode is available via analogue video output and can
be toggled with thermal image
•
plug in an Ethernet cable: indicator for time synchronization and check for calibration files
If no imager is connected or if the calibration files are missing, the Recording box is waiting and displays
the start screen which provides information about the installed firmware version.
