3.4 Disposal of electronic waste
Electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) contains materials, components and substan-
ces that may be hazardous and present a risk to human health and the environment
when waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) is not handled correctly.
Equipment marked with the below crossed-out wheeled bin is electrical and electronic
equipment. The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol indicates that waste electrical and elec-
tronic equipment should not be discarded together with unseparated household waste,
but must be collected separately.
For this purpose all local authorities have established collection schemes under which
residents can dispose waste electrical and electronic equipment at a recycling centre or
other collection points, or WEEE will be collected directly from households. More de-
tailed information is available from the technical administration of the relevant local
authority.

Working with images
14
14.1 Saving an image
14.1.1 General
You can save images to a memory card.
The camera saves an image file including all thermal and visual information. This means
that you can open an image file at a later stage and, for example, select another image
mode, apply color alarms, and add measurement tools.
The image jpg file is fully radiometric and saved lossless, which enables full post-proc-
essing in FLIR Tools. There is also a regular jpg part (lossy) for convenient viewing in
non-FLIR Systems software (Explorer).
14.1.2 About UltraMax
UltraMax is an image enhancement feature that increases the image resolution and low-
ers the noise, making small objects easier to see and measure. An UltraMax image is
twice as wide and high as an ordinary image.
When an UltraMax image is captured by the camera, several ordinary images are saved
in the same file. Capturing all the images can take up to 1 second. To fully utilize Ultra-
Max, the images need to be slightly different, which can be accomplished by a slight
movement of the camera. You should hold the camera firmly in your hands (do not put it
on a tripod), which will make these images vary just a little during the capture. Correct fo-
cus, a high-contrast scene, and a non-moving target are other conditions that help to
achieve a good-quality UltraMax image.
At the moment, only FLIR Tools has the ability to process UltraMax images. Other FLIR
software will treat the image as a regular image.
14.1.3 Image capacity
The capacity of a 4 GB memory card is theoretically 3600 images (with no annotations).
14.1.4 Naming convention
The naming convention for image files is FLIRxxxx.jpg, where xxxx is a unique counter.
14.1.5 Procedure
Follow this procedure:
1. To save an image, push the Autofocus/Save button fully down.
Note
• Depending on the settings in (Settings) > Save options, the following may
happen:
◦ A preview image is displayed before the image is saved.
◦ An annotation tool or the annotation menu is displayed when the image has been
saved.
• To configure UltraMax, select (Settings) > Save options >Image resolution =
UltraMax.
• The camera can be configured to also save the visual image as a separate file. Select
(Settings) > Save options >Photo as separate JPEG =On.
