20.3 Creating a text annotation
General
A text annotation is grouped with an image file. Using this feature, you can annotate
images. This text can be revised later.
This feature is very efficient when saving information on an image when you are in-
specting a large number of similar objects. Using text annotations avoids filling out
forms or inspection protocols manually.
NOTE
This procedure assumes that you have not set the camera to automatically add a
text annotation.
Procedure
Follow this procedure to create a text annotation:
To preview an image, pull the trigger.1
Use the navigation pad to select .
2
Push
to display a dialog box.

In this dialog box you can do one of the following:
■
Use an existing text annotation template, or create a new template.
■
Create new fields.
■
Enter new text values for the fields.
The text annotation will now be added to to what is called a group, and will
be grouped together with the infrared image in the image archive, and also
when moving files from the camera to reporting software on the computer.

(Step 5–8 describes how to add values to existing labels.)
Use the navigation pad to select a label in the list, e.g., Location or Object.
