Please Read

Test Shots
Before you try to shoot important subjects, we highly
recommend that you shoot several trial images to confirm that
the IR camera is operating and being operated correctly.
Please note that GSAT, its subsidiaries and affiliates, and its
distributors are not liable for any consequential damages arising
from any malfunction of an IR camera or accessory that results
in the failure of an image to be recorded or to be recorded in a
format that is machine readable.

Warning Against Copyright Infringement

Safety Precautions
Before using the camera, please ensure that you read and
understand the safety precautions described below. Always
ensure that the IR camera is operated correctly.
The safety precautions noted on the following pages are
intended to instruct you in the safe and correct operation of the
IR camera and its accessories to prevent injuries or damage to
yourself, other persons and equipment.

Warnings
Read on to learn about using this IR camera properly.
Avoid damaging eyesight
Warning: Do not trigger the laser pointer at human or animal eyes.
Exposure to the laser produced by the laser pointer may damage
eyesight.

Do not disassemble
Do not attempt to disassemble or alter any part of the equipment
that is not expressly described this guide
Stop operating immediately if it emits smoke or noxious
fumes
Failure to do so may result in fire or electrical shock. Immediately
turn the IR cameras power off, remove the IR camera battery or
unplug the power cord from the power outlet. Confirm that smoke
and fume emissions have ceased.
Stop operating immediately if it is dropped or the casing is
damaged
Failure to do so may result in fire or electrical shock. Immediately
turn the IR cameras power off, remove the IR camera battery or
unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
Do not use substances containing alcohol, benzene,
thinners or other flammable substances to clean or main
the IR camera
The use of these substances may lead to fire.
Remove the power cord on a regular periodic basis and
wipe away the dust and dirt that collects on the plug, the
exterior of the power outlet and the surrounding area
In dust, humid or greasy environments, the dust that collects
around the plug over long periods of time may become saturated
with humidity and short-circuit, leading to fire.

Do not handle the power cord if your hands are wet


Handling it with wet hands may lead to electrical shock. When
unplugging the cord, ensure that you hold the solid portion of the
plug. Pulling on the flexible portion of the cord may damage or
expose the wire and insulation, creating the potential for fires and
electrical shocks.
Do not cut, alter or place heavy items on the power
adapter cord
Any of these actions may cause an electrical short circuit, which
may lead to fire or electrical shock.
Use only the recommended power accessories
Use of power sources not expressly recommended for this IR
camera may lead to overheating, distortion of the IR camera, fire,
electrical shock or other hazards.
Do not place the batteries near a heat source or expose
them to direct flame or heat
Neither should you immerse them in water. Such exposure may
damage the batteries and lead to the leakage of corrosive liquids,
fire, electrical shock, explosion or serious injury.
Do not attempt to disassemble, alter or apply heat to the
batteries
This is serious risk of injury due to an explosion. Immediately flush
with water any area of the body, including the eyes and mouth, or
clothing, that comes into contact with the inner contents of a
battery. If the eyes or mouth contact these substances,
immediately flush with water and seek medical assistance.
Avoid dropping or subjecting the batteries to severe
impacts that could damage the casings
It could lead to leakage and injury.
Do not short-circuit the battery terminals with metallic
objects, such as key holders
It could lead to overheating, burns and other injuries.

Before you discard a battery, cover the terminal with tape


or other insulators to prevent direct contact with other
objects
Contact with the metallic components of other materials in waste
containers may lead to fire or explosions. Discard the batteries in
specialized waste facilities if available in your area.
Use only recommended batteries and accessories
Use of batteries not expressly recommended for this equipment
may cause explosions or leaks, resulting in fire, injury and damage
to the surroundings.
Disconnect the compact power adapter from both the IR
camera and power outlet after recharging and when the IR
camera is not in use to avoid fires and other hazards
Continuous use over a long period of time may cause the unit to
overheat and distort, resulting in fire.
Do not use the battery charger or compact power adapter
if the cable or plug is damaged, or if the plug is not fully
inserted into the power outlet
The battery charger varies according to region.
Exercise due caution when screwing on the separately
sold tele-lens, close-up lens
If you loosen, fall off and shatter, the glass shards may cause an
injury.
If your camera is used for prolong periods, the IR camera
body may become warm
Please take care when operating the IR camera for an extended
period as your hands may experience a burning sensation.

Prevent Malfunction
Read on to learn about preventing malfunction of IR camera
Avoid damaging the detector of the IR camera
Warning: Do not aim the IR camera directly into the sun or at other
intense heat source which could damage the detector of the IR
camera.

Avoid Condensation Related Problems


Moving the IR camera rapidly between hot and cold temperatures
may cause condensation (water droplets) to form on its external
and internal surfaces.
You can avoid this by placing the IR camera in the plastic case
(bundle) and letting it adjust to temperature changes slowly before
removing it from the case.
If Condensation Forms Inside the IR Camera
Stop using the camera immediately if you detect condensation.
Continued use may damage the IR camera. Remove the PC card,
and battery or a household power source, from the IR camera and
wait until moisture evaporates completely before resuming use.
Extended Storage
When not using the IR camera for extended periods of time,
remove the battery from the IR camera or battery charger and store
the IR camera in a safe place. Storing the IR camera for extended
periods with battery installed will run down the battery.

Charging the Battery Pack
Use the following procedures to charge the battery pack for the first time and
subsequently when the low battery icon appears on the Display Panel.
Align the edge of the battery pack with the line on the
battery, then insert the battery as arrow direction.

Attach the power cord to the battery charger and plug the
other end into a power outlet.
The charge indicator lights red while the battery pack is charging
and lights green when charging is complete.

After charging, unplug the battery charger and remove the battery
pack.

12

This is a lithium ion battery pack so there is no need to


complete use or discharge it before recharging. It can be
recharged at any time. However, since the maximum number
of charge cycle is approximately 300 (battery life), you are
recommended to only charge the battery pack after having
discharge it completely to prolong battery life.

Charging times will vary according to the surrounding


humidity and battery pack charge state.

Preparing the IR Camera


Installing the Battery Pack
