6.1 Preparation

For best performance, the ambient room temperature should be 25°c (77°F).
For optimal performance wait 40 minutes or more from start-up, to allow the Therm-App to reach an
initial steady temperature state.
In order to establish a baseline temperature, have 3 healthy people with regular temperatures pass in
front of the camera. Calculate from the highest temperature of the 3 people and set the Compensation
to bring the temperature to be 36.5°c (97.7°F). For example, if the highest temperature is 34°c (93.2°F)
set the compensation to be 2.5°c (4.5°F).
Set the temperature dial to the temperature you want to start getting alerts, for example 38°c (100.4°F)
(see Configuring the Alert for instructions).
Note:
Changing the compensation does not affect the threshold. The threshold should be determined by the
temperature after the compensation. For example, if you want to be alerted at 38°c (100.4°F) and above,
you set the threshold to 38. If over time, you change the compensation, for example, because of the
weather warming during the day, you do not have to change the threshold.
