Hi,
i am very happy that i found this Site, my E4 arrived yesterday 1,2L with 2.3 , calibrated 6 days ago, seem to be brand brand new
I have some questions:
1. where can i download Set_RNDIS_temporary.fif" and "Set_RNDIS_permanent.fif ??
Please check if your /FlashFS/system/appcore.d/config.d/conf.cfc is 6608
bytes.
2. How can I do that, Software needed?
3. Is Python 2.7.8 the right Version
Thanks from Germany and forgive my poor english
Michael
Out of curiosity, after the hack, what does the E8 still offer which the E4 would lack? Is the issue that the firmware version 2.3.0 can't be fully hacked yet?
Out of curiosity, after the hack, what does the E8 still offer which the E4 would lack? Is the issue that the firmware version 2.3.0 can't be fully hacked yet?With the old pre 2.x hack, the upgraded E4 had features that even the E8 didn't, like manual temp range setting.
AIUI the 2.x hack only improves the resolution, but I'm sure he other stuff will happen in time.
The E8 does have a better resolution spec, and we haven't yet figured out what determines this - it could be they they just add less noise, or could be that they select better sensors.

Thanks Mike. So what is your recommendation, should I down-grade to pre-2.x firmware? (If that is even possible), or is the new firmware worth it? What about the E5, is the hacked version of E5 (with 2.x firmware) essentially becomes an E8 (minus the small resolution improvement)?
If it was possible to downgrade things would be a whole lot easier (not sure anyone has seriously tried). I suspect the cal data from a later one may not work with earlier FW.
The resolution is the biggest improvement, so unless you can find an old stock 1.2x unit, wait until someone figures out how to hack the other features
now i know how to handle the fif, but could also get no connection via ftp at 192.168.0.2 to the camera, is it possible that flir changed the IP in the latest version? My Ip scanner also found nothing
- Connect your E4 via USB to your PC and turn it on
- Go to "Programs(x86)/Flir systems/Flir Tools/bin and execute FLIRInstallNet.exe (this is part of the FlirTools software installed in step 2)
- Select the RNDIS_xxxxxxx.fif (permanent or temporary) and click RUN FIF button.
(A timeout error is normal after the command has succeeded because USB is now set to RNDIS mode)
- Wait a moment and open a CMD window, then enter IPCONFIG
- An additional network connection should be listed with IP Address 192.168.0.1 and gateway 192.168.0.2
- Enter "FTP", then "open 192.168.0.2" and a connection to your cam should be established
- Login with user "flir" and password "3vlig"
- Issue a "dir" command and the files and directories of your cam are listed.
- If all that works, type "quit" to exit and close ftp connection.
Has anyone encountered 'limited range' E4? Wonder could it be reconfigured via this hack to full range E4 camera?

Temperature Range 0° to 150°C (Standard Range is –20°C to +250°C (–4°F to +482°F))
Accuracy ±5% or 5°C, whichever is greater at 25°C nominal
(Standard Accuracy is ±2°C (±3.6°F) or ±2% of reading, for ambient temperature 10°C to 35°C (+50°F to 95°F) and object temperature above +0°C (+32°F))

From Flir's website, the only differences between E5/E6/E8 is the resolution and a minor temperature sensitivity. Does this mean that a hack of the E5's resolution would result in essentially an E8? Since all the extra software features are already available on E5.
