Introduction
The Fluke Ti100, Ti110, Ti125, TiR110, and TiR125 Thermal Imagers (the
Product or Imager) are handheld, infrared imaging cameras for use in many
applications. These applications include equipment troubleshooting, preventive
and predictive maintenance, and building diagnostics. The Ti100 is a general-
purpose Imager. The Ti110 and Ti125 are for industrial-commercial
maintenance applications. The TiR110 and TiR125 are optimized for building
inspection and diagnostics applications.
All Imagers display thermal images on a high-visibility LCD screen and can
save images to an SD memory card. Saved images and data can be transferred
to a PC via the SD memory card or by a direct USB connection to the PC.
The Imager includes SmartView® software. This software is a high-
performance, professional software suite that allows for analysis and reporting.
Depending on the model, the Voice Annotation and IR-PhotoNotes™ features
are also available.
Infrared images display in different color palettes on each Imager. The
temperature measurement range is:
• Ti100, Ti110 -20 °C to +250 °C
• Ti125 -20 °C to +350 °C
• TiR110 -20 °C to +150 °C
• TiR125 -20 °C to +150 °C
A rugged, rechargeable lithium-ion smart battery provides power to the
Imager. Direct AC power is accessible with the included AC power adapter.
The Fluke Ti110, Ti125, TiR110, and TiR125 use the IR-OptiFlex™ focus
system. IR-OptiFlex keeps the Imager in focus at distances more than two feet.
It also allows the flexibility of one-touch manual focus to fine tune the image
in close-up situations. The Fluke Ti100 uses a focus-free system with a large
depth of field that keeps the image in good focus at distances more than two
feet.

How to Charge the Battery
Before you use the Imager for the first time, charge the battery for a minimum
of two and one-half hours. The battery status shows on the five-segment
charge indicator.
Note
New batteries are not fully charged. Two to ten charge/discharge
cycles are necessary before the battery charges to its maximum
capacity.
To charge the battery, use one of the options that follow:
Two-Bay Battery Charger Base
1. Connect the ac power supply to the ac wall outlet and connect the dc
output to the charger base.
2. Put one or two smart batteries into bays of charger base.
3. Charge batteries until charge indicators show “full.”
4. Remove smart batteries and disconnect the power supply when batteries
are fully charged.
On-Imager AC Power Socket
1. Connect the ac power adapter into an ac wall outlet and connect the dc
output to the Imager’s ac power socket. U flashes in the upper left-
hand corner of the display while the battery charges with the ac power
adapter.
2. Charge until the charge indicator on the display does not flash.
3. Disconnect ac power adapter when the smart battery is fully charged.
Note
Make sure that the Imager is near room temperature before you
connect it to the charger. See the charging temperature specification.
Do not charge in hot or cold areas. When you charge in extreme
temperatures, battery capacity may be decreased.
shows in the upper left-hand corner of the display when the Imager is

Keep the Imager attached to the charger until the battery condition icon shows
a full charge. If you remove the Imager from the charger before a full charge
shows, it may have a reduced run-time.
Note
When the battery is connected to ac power, or the unit is in video
mode, the Sleep Mode/Auto Off feature is disabled automatically.
Optional 12 V Vehicle Charger
1. Connect the 12 V adapter into the 12 V accessory socket of the vehicle.
2. Connect the output to the ac power socket of the Imager.
3. Charge until the indicator shows full on the screen.
4. Disconnect the 12 V adapter and Imager when battery is fully charged.
W Caution
To prevent damage to the Imager, remove it from the DC
car charger before you start or jump start the vehicle.
Power On and Off
To turn the Imager on or off, push and hold the green Power + button above
the LCD for two seconds, see Table 4. When the Auto Off feature is on, the
Imager goes into Sleep Mode after five minutes of inactivity and shows on
the display. Press any key to restart the Imager. After 20 minutes of inactivity,
the Imager turns off. For information about how to set this feature, see
page 35.
Note
All thermal imagers need sufficient warm-up time for the most
accurate temperature measurements and best image quality. This time
can often vary by model and by environmental conditions. Although
most imagers are fully warmed up in 3-5 minutes, it is always best to
wait a minimum of 10 minutes if the most accurate temperature
measurement is very important to your application. When you move
an Imager between environments with large differences in ambient
temperature, more adjustment time can be required.

Focus
Models Ti110, Ti125, TiR110, and TiR125 have IR-OptiFlex focus. The Ti100
uses a large depth of field focus-free system. Models with IR-OptiFlex focus
can operate in a focus-free mode, but also have the flexibility for close focus
situations (<61cm/24 inches) with a one-touch, fine-tune focus capability.
The focus-free system can focus at a minimum distance of 61 cm (24 in) to a
maximum of infinity with no adjustment.
Correct focus is important in all imaging applications. Correct focus makes
sure that the infrared energy is correctly directed onto the pixels of the
detector. Without the correct focus, the thermal image can be blurry and the
radiometric data will be inaccurate. Out-of-focus infrared images are
frequently unusable or of little value.
To operate the IR-OptiFlex focus in the focus-free mode, align the white dot
on the focus control with the white dot on the body of the Imager. You will
also feel a detent at this position. See Figure 1. In this mode, in addition to

Figure 1. IR-OptiFlex Focus
To operate with IR-OptiFlex focus in manual mode or to fine tune the focus,
turn the one-touch focus control in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction.
As you turn the focus control, you will see a live thermal image on the display
as it changes. When your target comes into focus, it shows a sharper image.
When the target moves out of focus, the image becomes blurry.
Primary and Secondary Triggers
The two-part trigger is located in the standard trigger position for a pistol-grip
device. The larger, green trigger is the primary trigger. The smaller, black
trigger is the secondary trigger.
In normal operation (video is off), the function of the primary trigger is to
capture a thermal image for possible storage to memory by the user. When
video is on, the primary trigger is the start/stop for video recording.
The secondary trigger operates the laser and torch. For information about how
to enable the laser and torch, see pages 31 and 32.

Temperature Measurement
All objects radiate infrared energy. The quantity of energy radiated is based on
the actual surface temperature and the surface emissivity of the object. The
Imager senses the infrared energy from the surface of the object and uses this
data to calculate an estimated temperature value. Many common objects and
materials such as painted metal, wood, water, skin, and cloth are very good at
radiating energy and it is easy to get relatively accurate measurements. For
surfaces that are good at radiating energy (high emissivity), the emissivity
factor is ≥90 % (or 0.90). This simplification does not work on shiny surfaces
or unpainted metals as they have an emissivity of <0.60. These materials are
not good at radiating energy and are classified as low emissivity. To more
accurately measure materials with a low emissivity, an emissivity correction is
necessary. Adjustment to the emissivity setting will usually allow the Imager
to calculate a more accurate estimate of the actual temperature.
W Warning
To prevent personal injury, see emissivity information for
actual temperatures. Reflective objects result in lower than
actual temperature measurements. These objects pose a
burn hazard.
Note
Surfaces with an emissivity <0.60 make reliable and consistent
determination of actual temperatures problematic. The lower the
emissivity, the more potential error is associated with the Imager's
temperature measurement calculations, even when emissivity and
reflected background adjustments are attempted and performed
properly.
More information is available on emissivity. We recommend the study of this
topic to get the most accurate temperature measurements.
SmartView Software
SmartView® software is supplied with the Imager. This software is intended
for Fluke Imagers and contains features to analyze images, organize data and
information, and make professional reports. SmartView® allows audio
annotations and IR-PhotoNotes to be reviewed on a PC. SmartView® is used to
export IR and visible images as .jpeg, .jpg, .jpe, .jfif, .bmp, .gif, .dip, .png, .tif,

Emissivity Adjustment
The correct emissivity values are important for you to make the most accurate
temperature measurements. Emissivity of a surface can have a large effect on
the apparent temperatures that the Imager observes. Understanding the
emissivity of the surface being inspected can, but may not always, allow you to
obtain more accurate temperature measurements.

If you set a value that is <0.60, W shows on the Imager display with this
caution:
WCaution:
Emissivity <0.6
(see Manual)
Note
Surfaces with an emissivity of <0.60 make reliable and consistent
determination of actual temperatures problematic. The lower the
emissivity, the more potential error is associated with the Imager's
temperature measurement calculations. This is also true even when
adjustments to the emissivity and reflected background adjustments
are performed properly.
Emissivity is set directly as a value or from a list of emissivity values for some
common materials.
Note
If the Display is set to Display All, you see the information about
current emissivity as ε = x.xx.

Reflected Background Temperature Compensation
Compensation for reflected background temperature is set in the Background
tab. Very hot objects or very cold objects can affect the apparent temperature
and measurement accuracy of the target or object of interest, especially when
surface emissivity is low. Adjustment of the reflected background temperature
can make the temperature measurement better in many situations. For more
information, see Emissivity Adjustment.

Transmission/Transmittance Adjustment
When you do infrared inspections through infrared-transparent windows
(IR windows), not all of the infrared energy emitted from the objects of
interest is transmitted through the optical material in the window. If the
transmission percentage of the window is known, you can adjust this
percentage in the Imager or in the SmartView software. Adjustment of the

Palette
The Palette menu lets you change the false-color presentation of the infrared
images on display or captured. A variety of palettes are available, depending
on the model. Some palettes are more suitable for specific applications and can
be set as required. Two different palette presentation modes are available on
most models (not applicable for the Ti100). The Standard Palettes offer an
equal, linear presentation of colors that allow for best presentation of detail.
The Ultra Contrast Palettes offer a weighted presentation of colors. These
palettes work best in situations with high thermal contrast for extra color
contrast between the high temperatures and low temperatures. Different
palettes are available for each model, see Table 6.

IR-Fusion®
IR-Fusion® makes it easier to understand infrared images through the use of an
aligned visible image and infrared image. The Imager automatically captures a
visible image with every infrared image to show you exactly what you see and
then allows you to more effectively show it to others.
IR-Fusion has different modes that vary by model, see Table 7. Full Visible
mode is also available. (The Fluke Ti100 does not have IR-Fusion and can
only display a full infrared image.)

Color Alarm
The Imager has various apparent temperature color alarms (not applicable for
Ti100). The high-temperature color alarm shows a full visible image and only
shows infrared information on objects or areas that are above the set apparent
temperature alarm level. The low-temperature/dew point color alarm shows a
full visible image and only shows infrared information on objects or areas that
are below the set apparent temperature/dew point color alarm level. The user
must manually find and set these parameters. The imager also displays color
isotherms, or infrared information, inside or outside of a set of both high and
low limits.
Note
The Imager does not sense ambient or surface dew point level
automatically. To use the low-temperature color alarm function as a
dew point color alarm, manual determination and input of surface
dew point temperature will yield the best results. Depending on the
situation, the colors presented will, or will not, actually show areas
with possible dew point condensation.

Images saved in the .is2 file format have the consolidation of all data into a
single file and are more flexible for analysis and modification in the included
SmartView software. This file format consolidates the infrared image,
radiometric temperature data, visible image, voice annotation, and
IR-PhotoNotes into one location.
For situations where a smaller file size with maximum resolution is needed and
modification is not, choose the .bmp file format. For the smallest file size
where modification is not needed and image quality and resolution are not as
important, choose the .jpg file format.
The .bmp and .jpg files can be emailed and then opened on most PC and MAC
systems without special software. These formats do not allow full analysis
capabilities or modification.
The .is2 file format can be emailed and then opened with SmartView Software.
This format has the maximum versatility. Visit the Fluke website or contact
