4. Setup Guide
- Download the Mobile Application:
Search for the dedicated thermal imaging application (e.g., "Thermal P2" or similar, refer to product packaging or official website for exact app name) on your mobile device's app store (Google Play Store for Android, Apple App Store for iOS if using a compatible adapter). Install the application.
- Connect the Thermal Imager:
Plug the TOOLTOP T7 Thermal Imager into your mobile device's USB Type-C port. Ensure a secure connection. For iOS devices, a compatible USB-C to Lightning adapter (not included) may be required if your device does not have a USB-C port.

- Launch the Application:
Open the installed thermal imaging application. The application should automatically detect the connected thermal imager and display the thermal view.
- Attach Macro Lens (Optional):
If you have the optional magnetic macro lens, carefully attach it to the front of the thermal imager's lens for enhanced close-up thermal imaging. This is useful for inspecting very small components.

5. Operating Instructions
Once the thermal imager is connected and the application is running, you can begin thermal imaging. The application interface will provide various controls and display options.
5.1. Basic Thermal View
The main screen will display the real-time thermal image. Hotter areas will typically appear in brighter colors (e.g., red, yellow), while cooler areas will be darker (e.g., blue, purple), depending on the selected color palette.
5.2. Temperature Measurement
The application supports various temperature measurement modes:
- Spot Measurement: Tap on the screen to add individual temperature measurement points.
- Line Measurement: Draw a line to measure temperature distribution along a specific path.
- Area Measurement: Define a rectangular area to track the highest, lowest, and average temperatures within that region.
- Automatic Tracking: The device can automatically track the highest, lowest, and central point temperatures in the entire field of view.

5.3. Color Palettes
The application offers multiple color palettes to visualize thermal data. You can switch between palettes to highlight different temperature variations or suit specific inspection needs. Common palettes include Iron, White Hot, Black Hot, Rainbow, Red Hot, and Cold Blue.

5.4. Photo and Video Capture
Use the dedicated buttons within the application to capture thermal photos or record thermal videos. These files will be stored in your mobile device's photo album for later review and analysis.
5.5. Night Vision Scene
The thermal camera can be used in low-light or no-light conditions, effectively providing a "night vision" capability by detecting heat signatures.

6. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use the provided cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the lens and body of the thermal imager. Do not use abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
- Storage: When not in use, store the thermal imager in its storage bag and box to protect it from dust, moisture, and physical damage.
- Environmental Conditions: Avoid using or storing the device in harsh environments such as extremely high temperatures, high humidity, or strong magnetic fields.
