Camera status icons

Thermal Camera

Indicates that the Thermal Camera feed is being controlled by a connected JCU.

Visible Camera

Indicates that the Visible-light Camera feed is being controlled by a connected JCU.

Azimuth (Position)

Shows the azimuth (or direction) of the camera relative to the vessel. The triangle shows the approximate camera Field Of View (FOV).

Elevation (Tilt)

Shows the vertical tilt of the camera. The triangle shows the approximate camera position.

Home

Indicates that the camera is in the home position. The icon flashes when a new home position is set.

Lock Zoom

Locks the zoom factor of the camera to the active payload, whenever possible.

Dual payload camera variants only: As the two payloads are separate imaging cores, they can each be set to a different zoom factor at the same time. E.g. thermal set to 2x zoom, visible-light set to 10x zoom. When you "lock the zoom to active", the camera attempts to synchronize the two zoom levels.

Mirrored View

Indicates the camera feed is reversed with respect to the vertical axis; i.e. it will be the “mirror image” of the original default orientation.

This feature is useful in situations where you have a camera pointing in the opposite direction to the direction of your vessel’s travel; i.e. it is a rear-facing camera.

Polarity

Indicates a change in image polarity. For example, if you invert the polarity of a typical monochrome thermal image where white represents hot temperatures, and black represents cold temperatures, the colors will be inverted so that black represents hot temperatures, and white represents cold temperatures.

Color Palette

Indicates a change in image color palette.

NMEA

NMEA messages

Indicates that the NMEA feature is enabled.

Power Down

This symbol is displayed to indicate that the camera is shutting down.

Scene: Night

One of four scene presets (Automatic Gain Control (AGC) settings), optimized for use on the open water at night.

Scene: Docking

One of four scene presets (Automatic Gain Control (AGC) settings), optimized for use when the boat is docking at night.

Scene: Day

One of four scene presets (Automatic Gain Control (AGC) settings), optimized for use on the open water during the day.

Scene: Contrast

One of four scene presets (Automatic Gain Control (AGC) settings), optimized for providing visibility to small moving objects.

Zoom Scale

Indicates the zoom factor of the active camera.

Vertical Stabilization

Indicates that gyro stabilization is configured to use the Vertical Stabilization setting only.

Vertical stabilization is intended to minimize the effects of vessel pitch (while used in a forward or reverse facing position) and vessel roll (while used in a port or starboard facing position).

Vertical and Horizontal Stabilization

Indicates that gyro stabilization is configured to use the Vertical and Horizontal Stabilization setting.

Vertical stabilization is intended to minimize the effects of vessel pitch (while used in a forward or reverse facing position) and vessel roll (while used in a port or starboard facing position).

* Horizontal stabilization is intended to keep the camera pointed in a fixed bearing, even as the vessel turns. For further information, refer to the ‘Flir Maritime M300 Series Camera Horizontal Stabilization’ article found on the FLIR Technical Support Center website:
