Thanks  :-+

Here is my teardown of the similar looking FLIR E2 camera.

Yes, outwardly a very similar camera. Inside there are a lot of differences. In a few minutes I will upload the video. The video has more details.
I wanted to connect a thermal imager to a computer. But he could not find the drivers. I could not download a photo from him. Need a special program or is it a breakdown?

You need FLIR ThermaCam Quickview or ThermaCam Reporter to access pictures held in the camera. FLIR may offer a demo version of ThermaCam Reporter. ThermaCam Researcher should also work and version 2.10 is available from the FLIR support site as a 30 day demo.

The camera offers both USB and RS232 connectivity, depending upon the cable used.

I once had a Optris ThermaCam (160x120px) which is obviously a FLIR E-Series thermal camera. With the USB to mini-DIN cable it appeared as ethernet interface. The driver and everything is included in FLIR QuickReport 1.2 SP2. The software is a ISO-File for burning on a CD but can be opened with 7zip.
I uploaded it here:
https://files.catbox.moe/vnk1vr.001
https://files.catbox.moe/hsbzxw.002
Split in two zip files because of the file size limit, when the two files are in the same directory rename them to the same name (for example test.001 and test.002) and open the .001 file with 7zip.

You don't need quick report to access the images. Find the properties of the network adapter (FLIR USB Network Adapter) and search for the address of the DHCP server. Use this address to access the storage with the explorer (for me it was "\\192.168.65.66").

Attached images not directly relevant, but they are taken with the TermaCam. The one with the watermark is the original file from the camera, the other one is the export from FLIR tools.
