Saving and working with images
Saving an image
To save an image, push the Save button at the top of the camera.
When you save an image, the camera stores the image file in the camera memory. You can also set up the camera to upload images for storage online, see section Uploading images.
Saving a high-resolution visual image
Select the Digital camera image mode to save a high-resolution visual image (5 megapixel image). Note that no thermal information is stored when in this image mode.
About image files
When an image is saved in one of the image modes Thermal MSX, Thermal, or Picture in picture, the saved image file contains all thermal and visual information. This means that you can open an image file, in the camera or in a FLIR Thermography software, and, for example, change the color palette, apply another image mode, and add measurement tools.
When an image is saved in the Digital camera image mode, a 5 megapixel image containing only the visual information is saved.
File-naming convention
The naming convention for image files is FLIRxxxx.jpg, where xxxx is a unique counter.
To reset the numbering of the image filenames,
tap
(Settings) > Device settings > Reset options > Reset image counter... > Reset.
To prevent image files being overwritten, the new counter value will be based on the highest existing filename number in the camera memory. To ensure that the counter is reset to 0001, delete all images from the camera memory before resetting the counter.
Adding a note
To make reporting and post-processing more efficient, you can add notes with additional information, e.g., conditions and information about where an image is taken. The notes are added to the image file and can be viewed and edited in the camera or in a FLIR Thermography software.
You can set up the camera to automatically
prompt for a note when an image has been saved. Select
(Settings) > Save options & storage > Add note after saving = On.
