Analytical & Alarm Functions
An advanced smart sensor configuration equips the FLIR A400 with a range of analytical features. It includes FSX® (Flexible Scene Enhancement) technology, which increases contrast in even-temperature scenes and enhances detail in low-light areas; a polygon line function, which improves the definition of areas of interest and object analysis; and adjustable temperature alarms.
Easy Integration
Offering unrivalled network connectivity and built-in computing options, the A400 seamlessly integrates into new and existing networks. Features such as built-in Wi-Fi (optional), Modbus TCP, and Ethernet/IP simplify integration into HMI/SCADA systems. Furthermore, Modbus TCP Master delivers superior I/O control enabling integration with industrial automation systems using analogue and digital control. In addition to this, the camera easily integrates into REST API over XML or JSON web systems. An MQTT protocol ensures it is prepared for digitalisation. Finally, compressed radiometric streaming makes it possible to connect multiple cameras and share footage over Wi-Fi.
The FLIR A400 with Advanced Smart Sensor Automation Thermal Camera is a powerful, flexible, reliable temperature-measuring automation camera suitable for a range of complex analytical/alarm applications.
