3—Basic Operation of the Tau and GUI

3.10 Image Capture Tab

The Image Capture tab on the FLIR Camera Controller GUI, shown below, allows you to capture
two 8-bit AGC corrected images to camera memory for retrieval to a host computer. The
images will be 8-bit grayscale only, without symbols. (The camera actually captures and
stores14-bit images and the FLIR Camera Controller GUI displays them as 8-bit images with
linear AGC applied.)
1. Select Video
Figure 3-9: FLIR Camera Controller GUI Analog Video Tab
Save Currently Displayed Image...: Saves an 8-bit .bmp file as described above.
Take Snapshot: Take two snapshots sequentially. Snapshot memory must be erased
before taking new snapshots; snapshots will not overwrite memory.
Retrieve Snapshot: Snapshot # is retrieved and displayed one at a time.
Erase Snapshot: Snapshots will stay in the camera until erased. This button will erase
all the snapshots from the camera, allowing new snapshots to be taken.
