1. Product Description
The M615 Cooled MWIR module is provided with the high-performance MCT cooled IRFPA detector,
and carried with the self-developed image processing algorithm. It reaches the frame rate of up to
100Hz, and has the noise equivalent temperature difference (NETD) as low as 15mK. It supports
multiple digital video interfaces, is suitable for multiple focus and continuous zoom lenses, and is widely
applied in vision enhancement, dynamic loading, border and costal defense and other scenarios. SDK is
provided, which is simple and easy to use, reducing secondary development costs.

6. Precautions
To protect yourself and others from harm or to safeguard your device from damage, please read all the
following information carefully before using your device to avoid affecting your warranty rights.
1. The ideal ambient temperature is -20°C to 50°C, and the module should be powered on as per the
product requirements for ambient voltage. Malfunctions caused by abnormal power-on are not
covered in the warranty.
2. Do not touch the detector window with your hands or collide with them by using any objects;
3. Do not touch the module and cables with wet hands, and do not bend or damage the connecting
cables.
4. Unauthorized updates to the module program are prohibited. If updates are required, please contact
technical support. Unauthorized disassembly of the module is prohibited. In case of a malfunction,
6
please contact technical support for guidance and repair. Any malfunctions caused by unauthorized
repairs will not be covered by warranty.
5. Do not use chemical solvents or diluents to clean any part of the module. You can use a special
lens cleaning cloth to clean the detector window. Under electrostatic protection conditions, it is
allowed to use an anti-static brush or a clean, soft, dry cloth to clean the mechanical shell and circuit
board surface.
6. Do not plug or unplug other cables without disconnecting the power;
7. Do not connect the provided cables incorrectly to prevent damage to the module. If the cables
cannot be inserted smoothly, do not insert and remove them forcibly. Please check whether the pin
is crooked, whether the insertion position is incorrect, or whether the plug is reversed.
8. Pay attention to the prevention of electrostatic discharge. When handling the module, wear an anti-
static wristband and finger cots. Avoid direct contact without protection.
9. The time interval between shutting down and restarting should not be less than 10 seconds.
10. During use, adapt the integral time to the scene and perform background correction.
11. Avoid damage caused by contact with other objects during use;
12. The module should be sealed in an anti-static bag and then put into shock-absorbing sponges in the
package box. When not in use, please place the module in an anti-static bag for sealed storage;
13. During storage, pay attention to protecting the module against water, moisture, impact, and drops.
Damage caused by improper storage or any other natural disaster is not covered by warranty;
14. When cleaning the lens, first use a blower to blow away particles and dust. Then use degreased
cotton to apply lens cleaning solution and gently wipe from the center to the edges in a single
direction. Replace the cotton after each wipe. During use, minimize the frequency of wiping.
