BCAM Basics Course

This distance learning course will introduce you to the FLIR Systems BCAM infrared camera with a primary emphasis on the theory and practice of using infrared thermography as a non-invasive building diagnostic and reporting tool.

We will discuss the controls of the camera as well as the user interface, and show you how to operate your camera and your report and analysis software. This course also includes lessons on IR thermography, IR science, and heat transfer. All of these subjects are necessary to allow you to properly interpret images.

Please Note: If you do not use a BCAM, you are still welcome to take the course but please realize that the button layout and operation will be different from your camera. If you have a B2 or E45 camera from FLIR, you should have received a "TrainIR CD" with your camera which will show you how to use your camera and covers much of the same information as the BCAM Basics course.

Course Highlights – you’ll learn:
- Expert tips-n-tricks on IR camera operation and report generation
- Basic science you need to understand thermography
- The best environmental conditions for surveys
- Basics of thermal image interpretation

For BCAM users, this class can help you get the most out of your investment.
