1Introduction
FLIR’s Scout handheld thermal imaging cameras give hikers, hunters,
and outdoorsmen the ability to see clearly in total darkness, providing
a wealth of valuable information during any nighttime excursion.
The Scout camera enables the outdoorsman to:
• See animals and difficult terrain in reduced visibility and total
darkness
• See through smoke, dust, and light fog
• See camouflage and foliage in any lighting conditions
•See more—and see farther—than with low-light night vision
goggles
The Scout camera makes images from heat, not light, a feat
impossible for the naked eye or even image intensified (I2) night vision
devices, which means you can see clearly even without any visible light
at all. People, animals, and objects all make their own heat and their
own contrast, and are clearly seen by the Scout in even the most
adverse conditions.

1–3 Cautions
Do not disassemble the camera enclosure. Disassembly can
cause permanent damage and will void the warranty.
Keep the compartment covers closed to avoid exposing the
cameras electronics to water or debris.
Do not point the camera directly at extremely high-intensity
radiation sources, such as the sun, lasers, arc welders, etc.
Only use the auxiliary power adapters provided with your
Scout camera. Connecting the camera to an improper power
source may damage the camera and void your warranty.
Be careful not to leave fingerprints on the camera’s infrared
optics.
Caution!
The camera window has an anti-reflective coating and should only
be cleaned with low pressure fresh water and a lens cloth.
Improper care of the camera window can cause damage to the
anti-reflective coating, degrade the camera’s performance, and
void the camera warranty.
