3. Setup

3.1 App Installation

Before using the InfiRay P2 Pro, you must install the companion application on your Android device (Android 9.0 or above required).

1. Open the Google Play Store on your smartphone or tablet.
2. Search for "Thermal P2" or "InfiRay P2 Pro".
3. Download and install the official InfiRay P2 Pro application.

3.2 Device Connection

Once the app is installed, connect the thermal camera to your device:

1. Ensure your Android device has OTG (On-The-Go) functionality enabled. This setting is usually found in your device's system settings under 'Connected devices' or 'OTG connection'.
2. Plug the InfiRay P2 Pro Thermal Camera directly into your smartphone's USB-C port.
3. Alternatively, use the provided 50cm extension cable to connect the camera to your device, offering more flexibility for hard-to-reach areas.
4. The InfiRay P2 Pro application should automatically launch and display the thermal image.

4. Operating Modes and Features

The InfiRay P2 Pro app offers various modes and settings to enhance your thermal imaging experience.

4.1 Simple Mode

In Simple Mode, the app automatically displays the hottest, coldest, and average temperatures within the frame. You can easily capture photos and videos.

4.2 Professional Mode

Professional Mode unlocks advanced measurement and analysis tools, providing greater control over your thermal data.

• Point Measurement: Tap on the screen to add up to three arbitrary points and display their exact temperatures.
• Line Measurement: Draw a line on the screen to display the highest, lowest, and average temperatures along that line. Up to three lines can be drawn.
• Area Measurement (Frame): Draw a square or rectangular frame to detect the highest, lowest, and average temperatures within that specific area. Multiple frames can be added.
• Scale Bar (DIY Bar): When enabled, you can slide your finger on the side of the screen to set the highest and lowest temperature range for the displayed palette. Objects outside this range will appear grey/black. (Note: This function does not work in White-hot and Black-hot palette modes).

4.3 Palette Options

The app offers 12 different color palettes to visualize thermal data, allowing you to choose the most suitable representation for various scenarios and preferences. Examples include White-hot, Black-hot, Rainbow, Iron-red, Jungle, Aurora, Golden Red, Medical, and Dim Light.

4.4 Image and Measurement Settings

Access the settings menu to customize your experience:

• Temperature Unit: Switch between Celsius (°C), Fahrenheit (°F), and Kelvin (K).
• Temperature Alarm: Set high and low temperature thresholds. The phone will sound an alarm if the image temperature exceeds or falls below these thresholds.
• Burn Prevention: This crucial feature automatically cuts off the sensor if it detects exposure to extremely high-temperature radiation sources (e.g., direct sunlight, very hot objects) to prevent damage. A warning will prompt on the screen.
• Image Settings: Adjust brightness and contrast for clearer thermal images. Enable/disable Automatic Shutter Switch and Continuous Image Capture.
• Variable Correction (Emissivity): Modify settings for emissivity, ambient temperature, and target distance based on the material being measured (e.g., default, wet soil, glass, red brick, skin, white paper, black cloth, wood, water surface, or custom).
• Image Flip: Flip and rotate the image by any angle (0°, 90°, 180°, 270°).
• Measurement Mode: Select between High Image Quality, Wide Range, or Automatic Switching for optimal performance.

5. Media Capture and Analysis

5.1 Photo and Video Recording

The InfiRay P2 Pro allows you to capture both thermal photos and videos directly within the app. Videos are recorded at a smooth 25Hz frame rate and can include audio from your device's microphone.

5.2 Gallery and Secondary Analysis

All captured images and videos are stored in a dedicated gallery within the app. From here, you can perform secondary analysis on saved thermal images, adding or modifying measurement points, lines, and frames. You can also generate reports and easily share your results.

5.3 Visible Light Image Overlay

The app supports a picture-in-picture function, allowing you to view a real-time visible light image from your phone's camera alongside the thermal image. This helps in better contextualizing the thermal data.

6. Versatile Applications

The InfiRay P2 Pro Thermal Camera is a versatile tool suitable for a wide range of applications:

• Home Inspections: Detect insulation gaps, drafts, moisture issues, and plumbing leaks.
• Energy Efficiency: Identify heat loss/gain in buildings, optimize HVAC systems.
• Electrical Systems: Pinpoint overheating components in circuit boards, fuse boxes, and electrical panels.
• Machinery Maintenance: Monitor temperature of mechanical components to prevent failures.
