Important Installation info for the Apollo
The Apollo is a thermal camera solution. All thermal camera solutions require you to follow specific installation guidelines to maintain system accuracy, but not all marketing material makes this point very clearly.
Please check the following document for very important setup, screening, and calibration guidelines Apollo guide
Currently the Apollo supports temperature displays in live view via the local monitor and Internet Explorer with the plugin. HTML5 or Viewstation are currently not supported.
The system includes a Blackbody, a device that emits temperature for the thermal camera to calibrate to and maintain accuracy.
Having consistent environmental temperature is the most important aspect to maintain accurate temperature readings.
Avoid heating or cooling ducts in the field of view of the thermal image or near the blackbody.
Avoid Entrances with lots of temperature fluctuations
Avoid big glass windows or entrances that may get high temperatures
Sunlight glares can also affect the thermal image accuracy
The ambient temperature must be between 61°F-89°F ideal range is 68°F-75°F.
Check the following installation example.
Apollo requirements for height
Screening example
The Apollo camera and blackbody are tripod mounted (tripods included). The blackbody must be in the frame of the thermal camera and alerts come via dedicated Windows which should be monitored by person. High temperatures automatically capture a image to further identify the person with a fever.
