SIZE-UP MODE

Size-up Mode is a new mode designed for use with small fires or quick size-up from outside of the fire scene. This mode features a limited dynamic range (250°C/480˚F) so that yellow colourisation comes in earlier at 80°C (based on customer feedback).

FIRE MODE

Perfect for fully developed fires at high temperatures, Fire Mode uses the full dynamic range of the camera. Colorization starts at 150°C/300°F on a scale from yellow to red.

OVERHAUL MODE

In Overhaul Mode the hottest part of the scene is colorized red. This mode is designed to help firefighters check for hot spots after the fire to ensure there is no chance of the fire reigniting.

INSPECTION MODE

A full colour scheme designed for preventative maintenance of equipment and buildings.

 

WH MODE

White Hot mode for general search applications with no heat colorization.

MISSING PERSONS MODE

Optimised for maintaining high contrast while searching for people in landscapes, buildings or traffic accident scenes. Features a limited dynamic range (80˚C/180˚F) and highlights the hottest part of the scene in blue.

How can I tell if I have an Ignis engine camera?

Other than the image quality improvements, the new model numbers all begin with MI-TIC-*-*. e.g. a Mi-TIC S 3 button has the model number MI-TIC-S-3. The model number is clearly displayed on the product label which is located underneath the removable battery.
