Troubleshooting

For technical support please contact support@pulsar-vision.com.

Answers to frequently asked questions about the devices can also be found in the FAQ section.

Possible cause

The battery is completely discharged.

Solution

Charge the battery.

Possible cause

The USB cable is damaged.

Solution

Replace the USB cable.

 

Possible cause

The external power supply is discharged.

Solution

Charge the external power supply (if necessary).

Possible cause

Calibration is required.

Solution

Perform image calibration according to the Microbolometer Calibration section of the manual.

Possible cause

Manual calibration has been performed with the lens cover open.

Solution

Check the Calibration Mode, close the lens cover and calibrate the device.

Solution

If the image does not clear after calibration, you need to recalibrate.

Possible cause

Brightness or contrast level is too low.

Solution

Adjust the brightness or contrast in the Quick Menu.

Possible cause

The device was exposed to static charges during operation.

Solution

When the exposure to static charges is over, the device may either reboot automatically or require to be switched off and on again.

Possible cause

You are looking through glass.

Solution

Remove the glass or change the viewing position to avoid it.

Possible cause

These problems may occur during observation in adverse weather conditions (snow, rain, fog, etc.).

Possible cause
Device password has been changed.

Solution

Delete the network and connect again using the password saved in the device.

 

Possible cause

The device is in an area with too many Wi-Fi networks that may be causing signal interference.

Solution

To ensure a stable Wi-Fi connection, relocate the device to an area with fewer or no Wi-Fi networks.

Possible cause

The smartphone or tablet is beyond reliable Wi-Fi range. There are obstacles between the device and the signal receiver (e.g. concrete walls).

Solution

Move the devices in line-of-sight and within range of the Wi-Fi signal.

Possible cause

In positive temperature conditions, objects being observed (surroundings and background) heat up differently because of thermal conductivity, thereby generating a high temperature contrast. Consequently, the image quality produced by the thermal imager will be better.

In low-temperature conditions, objects being observed (background) will cool down to roughly the same temperature, which leads to a greatly reduced temperature contrast and a degraded image quality. This is normal for all thermal imaging devices.

Possible cause

The Bluetooth module is not turned on.

Solution

Turn on the Bluetooth module according to the instructions (see the Bluetooth section).

 

Possible cause

The Remote control is not activated.

Solution

Activate the remote control according to instructions (see the Remote Control Activation section).

 

Possible cause

The Remote Control is out of range of the device.

Solution

Return to the device coverage area.

 

Possible cause

Remote control battery low.

Solution

Install a new CR2032 battery as follows: unscrew the screws on the rear cover of the Remote Control, remove the cover, install a new battery, and screw the cover with screws.
