    Please take care not to isolate the aluminum casing especially in situations when high cpu load is generated permanently. The surface can become hot in such situations (especially the area with the cooling stripes above the TeAx logo)! Overview of TCSmart+ (cf.
  • Page 4 ThermalCapture Smart+ User Manual package support it’s possible to do native development on the machine itself. No cross compile setup is needed. For convenience there’ s a ready to go setup of a (including Qt Creator) installation with pre configured demo projects that show examples on how to connect TCFusionZoom, how to build a qt-based live viewer or how to to process incoming data of TCFusionZoom in OpenCV.

    ThermalCapture Smart+ User Manual Power supply for the TCSmart+ and additional hardware (e.g. TCFusionZoom) GND of supply 2.2.4 UART The UART of TCSmart+ can be used as communication interface (incoming or outgoing control commands for example). Please note the signal voltage level of 3.3V (Never connect regular RS232 signal levels to the UART connection of TCSmart+).

    T h e Trigger_Out pin forwards a PWM signal from the Servo Connector of TCSmart+ to the Trigger_In pin of TCFusionZoom. On Pin1 is the supply for an optionally TeAx-GPS-Module connected to the TeAx-GPS-Connector (supply of GPS by TCFusionZoom). Via Pin7 GPS_Out the GPS data from an optionally available TeAx-GPS-Module are forwarded to the GPS_In of TCFusionZoom.

    ThermalCapture Smart+ User Manual configured for security. There’s a standard user ubuntu with password ubuntu. On a graphical user session you can just login (with HDMI monitor, keyboard and mouse): • User: ubuntu • Pwd: ubuntu If you want to connect the machine via network theres an SSH service running on TCSmart+. You need the IP address of the TCSmart+ for the SSH session.

    To circumvent this and to make TCFusionZoom accessible by normal users there is an udev rule installed to /etc/udev/rules.d/99- teax.rules. This way the device is attached with the appropriate permissions. ubuntu@ubuntu:$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/99-teax.rules SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0483", MODE="0666"...

    ThermalCapture Smart+ User Manual 3.5 Using of Status LED The status LED can be freely configured. It’s an RGB LED. Each of the 3 channels can be switched independently by using the appropriate GPIO-Pin of the TCSmart+ (the RGB channels can be combined, e.g.
  • Page 15: Post Processing With Thermoviewer Software

    ThermoViewer is the post-processing software provided by TeAx Technology to process RAW data captured by TeAx products like TCFusionZoom. It allows the user to quickly browse through recorded data and tune every single frame into the perfect result. For further usage of the data it can be exported into images like JPG and PNG, videos and CSV data.
