What should be paid attention to when using the Zenmuse XT S?
1. Do not aim the camera lens at high-energy power sources, such as the sun, lava, laser beams. The temperatures of observation targets should not exceed 600℃, or it will cause irreversible damages to the camera.
2. Do not place the camera under direct sunlight, in places with poor ventilation, or near heaters.
3. Do not power on or off the camera too frequently, please wait for at least 30 seconds before restarting the camera, or it may affect the service life of camera chips.
4. Do not hot swap the microSD card during use.
5. Do not touch the camera lens or scratch it with hard objects, or it may affect the image quality, or result in blurry images.
6. Please use a soft and dry cloth to clean the surface of the camera lens. Do not use alkaline detergents.
What is the temperature detection accuracy of the Zenmuse XT S? And what factors will affect the temperature detection accuracy?
The temperature detection accuracy is ±2℃ or ±2% (subject to the larger value) when measuring from a distance of 5 meters in laboratory environments without winds and at room temperature of 25℃. Note that this accuracy only applies to a specified object and is for your reference only. Temperature detection accuracies vary according to the emissivity of objects. Temperature detection is so complex that its accuracy is often affected by the environment. Environmental factors that affect temperature detection accuracy include:
(1) Reflectivity of objects – shiny metals with high reflectivity will reflect more of the background radiation and result in lower accuracy, whereas objects with matte surfaces will produce a higher accuracy.
(2) Temperature of background radiation – a sunny day without clouds will have less of an effect on the accuracy than a cloudy day.
(3) Air temperature and humidity – the temperature and humidity have been calibrated during production, but some temperature measurement errors are inevitable. Extreme temperatures or humidity levels will affect the measurement accuracy.
(4) Distance between the camera and the object – the default distance used in calibration is 5 m, and the temperature measurement is most accurate at this distance. As the distance increases or decreases, the accuracy decreases.
(5) Emissivity of objects – the emissivity of the object will affect the temperature measurement accuracy. Generally, accuracy increases proportionally to emissivity. Emissivity is affected by factors such as the material, the roughness or the degree of oxidation of the object’s surface.
How do I upgrade the Zenmuse XT S firmware?
Before upgrading, please ensure the aircraft is powered off, the Zenmuse XT S is securely attached to the aircraft, the microSD card has enough space for storage, and the intelligent flight battery has enough power.
1. Visit official DJI website and enter the Downloads section of the Zenmuse XT S product page.
2. Download the latest firmware package.
3. Store the downloaded firmware package to a microSD card.
4. Insert the microSD card into the microSD card slot on the Zenmuse XT S.
5. Power on the aircraft, and the gimbal will start to perform a self-check, then automatically upgrade the firmware.
6. Please restart all devices after the upgrade completes.Gimbal upgrade status description:
4 short beeps …new firmware detected, ready to upgrade.
1 long beep …upgrading firmware, do not stop the update.
1 long beep followed by 2 short beeps… The firmware update was successful.
Continuous long beep… The firmware update failed, please try to update again. Contact DJI support for help if needed.Notes:
• Please only store one version of firmware in microSD card. Multiple versions of firmwares stored in the microSD card will cause upgrade failure.
• Do not power off the aircraft or remove the Zenmuse XT S from the aircraft during the upgrade, or it may damage the gimbal.
