3.3 Touchscreen Interface and Image Modes
The 3.5-inch color LCD touchscreen allows for intuitive navigation and setting adjustments. You can easily switch between different image modes to best suit your inspection needs:
- Termico: Displays pure infrared images.
- MSX0: Combines thermal and visual details for enhanced clarity.
- Immagine nell'immagine: Overlays a thermal image window on a full visual image.
- Camera digitale: Captures standard visual light images using the integrated 5 MP digital camera.
The touchscreen also supports 1-Touch Level/Span, allowing you to improve image contrast by simply touching an area of the screen, which auto-adjusts the level and span.
