IR Thermal Camera/Tracker

1. Q: Thermometry IR thermal camera version, the image is red. How to solve?

It is a temperature alarm, which can be eliminated

Case 1: Use Viewlink software, PWM, S.BUS control

Answer:

(1) Connect serial port, make sure it is well connected.

(2) Send commands “AA 55 0A 96 FF” and “AA 55 0B 43 FF”, and the received feedback commands are same as sent.

Case 2: Use protocol control

Answer: Picture-in-picture switching/color palette switching command, which needs to set the temperature alarm value; the 9th to 12th byte in the 7E command is the temperature measurement alarm setting bytes, float single-precision floating-point 32-bit (4 bytes, big- endian) is converted into a decimal temperature value, the factory default value is 300° (float: 43 96 00 00)

For example:

4. Q: How to check the software version of the thermal camera (or tracker)?

Case 1: Connect serial port, send serial port command

Answer: Send serial command “7e 7e 44 00 00 d4 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 14”. If there is video output, the software version information will appear in the lower left corner of the screen  in 2 lines. (as below shown)

SRED

Case 2:Connect TCP, send TCP command

Answer: Send TCP command ”EB 90 30 7E 7E 44 00 00 D4 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 14 28”.  If there is video output, the software version information will appear in the lower left corner of the screen  in 2 lines. (as below shown)

D5YRTDF

Case 3: After powering on, immediately turn on the video stream (HDMI or IP) and wait for the version information display automatically which will disappear in 30 seconds.

dtrhg (1)

Case 4: If there is no video stream output or abnormal, connect IP output by configuration tool (download from Viewpro website) and click Search Version at bottom and the version number will be display in the box. 

5. Q: How to read and download the photos and videos in TF through IE browser?

Answer: Upgrade the specific firmware, through IE “http://192.168.2.119:8188/download”, you can see the photos or videos and download them, or you can download them through the Wget command. (Please contact with Viewpro technical support for the firmware.) 

6. Q: Can’t play the video in TF card?

Case 1: The power is cut off without stopping the record, causing the stored video file damaged

Answer:

1. H264 format, the video can be played without stopping record when the power is interrupted

2.Set by protocol to pack the videos by segments.

3.Recover video files by repairing software

7. Q: How to change the size of the track box?

Answer: Use track size cmd to set the desired size. Sent once, this size will be stored in eeprom: AA 55 1E SZ FF, please note that SZ is hexadecimal

0×24: Small template 32

0×28: Medium template 64

0×30: Large template 128

The above information can be superimposed, for example:

0x2c: small template + medium template

0×38: Medium template + large template

Example: You can send AA 55 1E 28 FF to set the track size to a medium template

8. Q: How does the tracker output offset?

Answer:

Send command:   AA 55 20 02 FF —— output offset

AA 55 20 00 FF —— don’t output offset

Output format: BB 01 XL XH YLYH 02 CS (CS: sum of all bytes modulo 256)

For example: BB 01 2A 01 80 FE 42 A7

X-axis offset 0x012A–> 298  Y-axis offset 0xFE80–> -384 (relative to the center point deviation pixel point: right positive, left negative, bottom positive, above negative)

When sending stop tracking command, it will feedback: BB 01 00 00 00 00 20 DC

dtrhg (2)

Viewlink Protocol: the center point is 0, the center coordinate of offset (0,0)

Subtract (960, 540) from the pixel coordinates of the locked targets

12. Q: How to upgrade T series CONN control board program?

Answer:

1.Format a TF card

2.Create a file in the TF card and name it as “update” , and put the software ”S303M32 .bin” into this file.

3.Insert the TF card into the camera

4.Power on the camera

5.Wait for 2 ~3minutes (Screen will indicate the success if there is video output. The gimbal will have home position indication sound after upgrade finished.)

6.Restart the camera
