Thermal eye 4500, 3600AS

[Fraser]

The 3500/3600 and 4500 may be configured via their USB port using the Thermal Eye GUI.

See my post on the L3 X50 That I repaired......

This is going to be a shot in the dark but anyway:
Anyone selling a narrower lens for the 4500 core? What came with the 4525 or 4512? Willing to put mine in for trade.
The alternative is building a zoom lens from znse, but that would add about 10cm infront of the camera

[Hydron]

Do you know what lens it came with? A relatively wide angle one I assume?

Fraser or others - do you know whether the 4500AS and 3600AS share the same lens mount, and whether the optics are compatible?

If they are compatible then I might consider swapping my 3600AS lens for a wider 4500AS one - my 3600AS FoV is a bit narrow for my applications. I do not know the exact FoV/focal length of the one I have, though if there is interest I can probably work it out.

[Fraser]

Sorry I do not know whether lenses are interchangeable between the 4500AS and 3600AS.

A recalibration of the core would normally be needed as well to achieve a flat field with the different lens Characteristics.

@Hydron It's a 50° lesn. Way to much for my usage.
@Fraser (or anybody) I've found one on ebay, that has a larger window.
The seller doesn't know anything, only what's in the pictures

i have thermal eye cores in my collection 3500as 4500as and the 4512as the all work well and some are radiometric  it would be nice to turn it off for a clean image view. so i added the extra lines in there connectors to plug them to the usb  but i do not have the software . can anybody help me find it. i added the polarity and zoom buttons the the 4500as core from the eagle 2 firefighter cameras, that same connector i tried on the 4512as core from a nvti multicamera unit i just got a week ago from ebay for 125-bucks$$ and found it has a higher zoom range that works great with the bigger lens it has, it would be nice to tryout the software for my cores to add to my collection i also have my first real thermal camera the atn x150 xpfrom 2009  i would like to thank fraser for the pictured he show of the repair of the same type i own  i was nice to see the inside working design layout

Did we post the Thermal Eye control software here on site? Does anyone have the ICD for the serial data streams?

[oddbondboris]

the icd is in my earlier post reply number 9 on this topic

So time to bring this one up from the grave
A friend of mine had a accident with his 3600 core and one of the components released the dreaded white smoke. Does anyone have a spare board or even a high detail image od the damaged component, that he can replace it.
After the accident the board draws 0 mA, so hopefully it's only the damaged component and a fuse somewhere.

Thank you

Mine has a slightly different PCB (PWB7070076 Rev A) but see attached pic anyway:

This may not help much for your cause, but here is a close-up of the two 4500as boards and various SOT23 type devices.

I too am interested in obtaining the eZoom software if anyone has it avalible.
