If the camera still does not produce an image, contact the FLIR dealer or reseller who provided the camera, or contact FLIR directly (contact information is provided on the rear cover of this manual). - Page 42 Troubleshooting Tips Image too dark or too light By default, the M400 thermal camera uses an automatic gain control (AGC) setting that has proven to be superior for most applications. However, a specific environment may benefit from a different AGC setting. For example, a very cold background (such as the sky) could cause the camera to use a wider temperature range than appropriate.
