Thermal Camera Instructions

For details on camera operation and device compatibility, download the Instructions below.

iPhone

Although the library catalog lists one camera model for iPhones, there are actually two in circulation: Generation 2 and Generation 3. The iPhone camera compatibilities are virtually interchangeable and most are Generation 3. If you need the Generation 2 iPhone camera to attach to a 5 or 5s, contact  energyactionfairfax@fairfaxcounty.gov.

  • Generation 2 – compatible with SE, 7, 7 Plus, 6, 6 Plus, 5, 5s, iPad, and iPad Mini
  • Generation 3 – compatible with SE, 7, 7 Plus, 6, 6 Plus, iPad, and iPad Mini
Android

Although the library catalog lists one camera model for Androids, there are actually two in circulation: Generation 2 and Generation 3. Generation 2 cameras require a micro-USB connection, while Generation 3 cameras require a USB-C connection. However, adapters are provided in each case that should make every camera compatible with both USB-C and micro-USB connections. If you need to exchange one camera model for another, contact energyactionfairfax@fairfaxcounty.gov.

  • Generation 2 – requires Android Version 4.4.2 or higher and a micro-USB connection; compatible with Android Version 5.0.0 or higher and a USB-C connection when adapter is used
  • Generation 3 – requires Android Version 5.0.0 or higher and a USB-C connection; compatible with Android Version 4.4.2 or higher and a micro-USB connection when adapter is used
