FLIR 1-ToucFLIRh Level/Span to improve thermal image accuracy and contrast

1-Touch Level/Span allows you to choose a small area of focus in a thermal image with one touch of the screen and the camera will auto-adjust the level and span based on the thermal contrast at that spot in the image. The result: time saved on manual adjustments. Use the touchscreen to choose an object or an area of interest
with one quick tap, and a circle will come up around the object or the area you selected. The camera will automatically narrow the span to clearly represent the temperature span and level inside that circle, providing focused detail
in the thermal image to highlight issues in a way.

The benefit is you can dial in on the problems and details you are interested in. 1-Touch Level/ Span allows you to ignore all the areas of the image you are not interested in by narrowing the span. For example, have a look at figure A, a thermal image of a pole-mounted transformer with the sky in the background.

Let’s say you want to know the temperature of the hot spot and are not concerned with the temperature of the sky. If you touch the area of the transformer on the screen, a circle will pop up around the spot you selected, and the temperature span will adjust to show the highest and lowest temperatures within the circle (as shown in figure B). The contrast in the thermal image will increase, enhancing the image detail and improving your ability to spot a problem or even notice new failures — especially when small temperature variations can make the difference
