[...] So far you're the only person who has mentioned a problem with service mode as far as I can tell, which is why I am asking others to tell me their experiences with regard to this. I read through everything here, and your revelation comes as a shock and huge disappointment to me and I don't understand why others haven't brought this up. I would have expected some notice about this in the information thread as well.
It has been stated here and here. And most certainly a few other times.
What exactly is "a shock" and "huge disappointment" about a missing service mode that has been hardly used anyway? It's still hackable. Is an E8+ for the price of an E4 worth nothing?
I really don't see an issue...
Tell you what?You have quoted your own post without adding anything.
Has anyone received recently the free gift for the E4 purchase?
I`ve sent my request early in March, they requested me the invoice around the 15th of March,and since then I have no feedback.

TL;DR :
30th Mar 2014.
New production units are shipping with 1.21 or 1.22 firmware, and hardware version 1.1L It is not known what the L means. Very few if any 1.19.x units remain in the distribution chain.
1.2x has countermeasures against the original hack, however 1.21 and 1.22 have now been successfully hacked, and confirmed by several users.
Jan 29rd 2014 is the latest reported manufacture date we have seen with 1.9.8 firmware.
This post will be updated with any developments. Things are moving fast so always check the end of the thread for any very recent updates.

Yes, it has a 320x240 60fps sensor - same as the £4700 E8 model and even more expensive Ex0 series

The optics in the E4 are about as cheap and simple as can be deployed in a thermal camera, and still achieve an acceptable image. More advanced cameras use much larger and higher performance optics. You get what you pay for. This is another reason why the E8 isn't great value....it uses the same cheap optical block as the E4. The new MX function effectively inserts the target edge detail that is lost by the relatively low thermal resolution and optical performance.
Looks like it is just a standard 32 bit CRC like used in the ZIP format. Here's a short python script to calculate it for a file:Code: [Select]import sys
import zlib
with open(sys.argv[1], 'r') as fp:
crc = zlib.crc32(fp.read()) & 0xffffffff
print '0x%08x' % crc
import sys
import zlib
with open(sys.argv[1], 'rb') as fp:
crc = zlib.crc32(fp.read()) & 0xffffffff
print '0x%08x' % crc
FYI: FLIR is reducing the price of the E4 to $750 for a limited time only!

Here are the steps:

Since so many people seem to struggle with generating their own conf.cfc , I took the time and wrote a quick'n'dirty (well, not really quick but still a bit dirty) GUI for the tools in AutoIt. See the attached .zip .
I did some testing and everything should work. Also most errors should be handled. But ("sadly" ) I only have an E4 with firmware 1.19.8 , but maybe someone could do some testing by herself / himself and give me some feedback.
@ flir-ID10T : Maybe this will help you.

It took them about 3 weeks to ship mine. You can find out the status by calling FLIR Sales at 800-464-6372.
