Viewing Images on Another Device
Saved images can be transferred to another device in
two ways - by removing the SDHC card and inserting
it into another device, or by connecting the Thermal
Imager directly to another device. This allows the
images to be available for things like email, insert-
ing into documents, or for use in the MILWAUKEE
Thermal Imaging Software.
To transfer the SDHC card, follow the Removing/
Installing the SDHC Memory Card instructions. To
transfer pictures directly, connect the micro USB
cord to the Thermal Imager micro USB port. Con-
nect the other end to your device. Turn the Thermal
Imager on.
Two types of fi les are created for each image. A
".PNG" fi le is created for general use. A ".DAT" fi le
is created for use in the MILWAUKEE Thermal Imag-
ing Software.

Optimizing Thermal Images
Use the emissivity settings, palette selection, and
HOT/COLD indicators to optimize your thermal im-
ages to your needs.
Selecting the Color Palette
Select one of three color palettes to suit your needs.
Turn the tool on, then use the arrow ◄► buttons to
step through the palettes.
RAINBOW Shows a very wide range of
temperatures
IRON-BOW Useful for revealing small
temperature differences
HIGH CONTRAST Shows the most detail
HOT/COLD Indicator marks
To turn the HOT/COLD Indicator marks on or off
while taking a temperature measurement, press
the OK button during live view. Red (hot) and blue
(cold) target marks locate the highest and lowest
temperatures in the display area.
Taking a Temperature Measurement
1. Insert a battery pack and turn
on the tool.
2. Point the tool at the target.
The Target Temperature is dis-
played at the top of the screen.
3. To activate the laser guides,
pull the trigger softly (less than
half-way). See "83:1 Distance
to Spot Ratio".
4. Turn the HOT/COLD indi-
but-
cator marks on or off, or toggle
through the different palettes
to get the desired image on the display.
5. The center temperature is affected by the material
of the target, and can be adjusted by changing the
Emissivity. See "Selecting the Emissivity".
Using the Laser Indicators
Use the lasers to frame up the target area. The
lasers correlate to the temperature crosshair on the
display. Lasers are accurate to 3" @ 50'. The target
temperature is taken in between the laser indicators,
and sized according to the following chart.
83:1 Distance to Spot Ratio
At 83' away,
spot is ~Ø 1'
At 25' away,
spot is ~Ø 4" At 3' away,
spot is ~Ø 1/2"
NOTE: A quick change in temperature (>10°F) can
affect the meter's readings. Always allow the me-
ter to reach its stable operating temperature after
startup and before use (5 to 30 minutes, depending
on environment).

Taking a Thermal Image
An SDHC card must be installed for the
Thermal Imager to save images and data. If
no SDHC card is installed, the error message
"NO SD CARD" is displayed.
1. Use the steps under "Taking a Temperature Mea-
surement" section to frame the desired image on
the display.
2. The Target Temperature, color palette, and any
displayed marks will be captured in the image.
3. Pull the trigger fully to take the picture.
4. To save the image, press the OK button or pull
the trigger again.
5. To cancel the image, use the arrow ◄► buttons to
select Cancel, then press the OK button.
Image Review
To review the saved images on the display:
1. Press the Image Review
button.
2. Use the arrow ◄►buttons to
scroll through the images.
3. To delete an image, press
the OK button to select the
displayed image, then use the
arrow ◄► buttons to select
Delete. Press the OK button
again.
4. Use the DELETE ALL function
in Settings to batch-delete
the images.
5. To return to live view, press the Image Review
button again.
Selecting the Emissivity
Emissivity is an internal setting that is used to adjust
the tool based on the type of material being mea-
sured. Different materials emit radiation differently
and changing the emissivity value will provide a
more accurate temperature based on the material
being measured. Select the material or emissivity
level in Settings .
1. Press the Settings button.
2. Use the arrow ▲▼ buttons to select EMISSIVITY.
3. Press OK.
4. Emissivity can be set by ratio or material.
Use the arrow ◄► buttons to select the ratio col-
umn or the material column. Then, use the arrow
▲▼ buttons to select the desired ratio or material.
5. Press OK.

MAINTENANCE
To reduce the risk of injury, always
WARNING
unplug the charger and remove the
battery pack from the charger or tool before
performing any maintenance. Never disassemble
the tool, battery pack or charger. Contact a
MILWAUKEE service facility for ALL repairs.
Obtaining Technical Support or Service
Your tool should not need calibration, however, to
obtain documentation that your tool meets specifi ca-
tions, contact the nearest service center. The tool will
be sent out for testing, and you will receive it back
with proper documentation.
Maintaining Tool
Keep your tool, battery pack and charger in good re-
pair by adopting a regular maintenance program. Af-
ter six months to one year, depending on use, return
the tool, battery pack and charger to a MILWAUKEE
service facility for:
• Lubrication
• Mechanical inspection and cleaning (gears, spin-
dles, bearings, housing, etc.)
• Electrical inspection (battery pack, charger, motor)
• Testing to assure proper mechanical and electrical
operation
If the tool does not start or operate at full power with
a fully charged battery pack, clean the contacts on
the battery pack. If the tool still does not work prop-
erly, return the tool, charger and battery pack, to a
MILWAUKEE service facility for repairs.
To reduce the risk of personal in-
WARNING
jury and damage, never immerse
your tool, battery pack or charger in liquid or
allow a liquid to fl ow inside them.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from vents. Keep handles
clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild
soap and a damp cloth to clean, since certain clean-
ing agents and solvents are harmful to plastics and
other insulated parts. Some of these include gasoline,
turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner, chlorinated
cleaning solvents, ammonia and household deter-
gents containing ammonia. Never use fl ammable or
combustible solvents around tools.
Cleaning the Lens
Blow off loose particles with clean compressed
air. Carefully wipe the surface with a cotton swab
moistened with water. Using a second cotton swab,
dry completely.
