I was able to get this working today on my Flir E5 2.0L 3.16. Installed both basic and advanced. I'm a lvl 2 thermographer but haven't used the technology for at least 8 years. I think this guy is better than the 20K unit i used back then.
I did have a couple hangups
1) RNDIS is not necessary if you have a WiFi unit. I used the hotspot in my house to connect the device to, then I was able to ping the device as described using cmd prompt ping IRCAMxxxx. X's being the last 4 of S/N
2) The whole python thing was difficult as I have done 0 with code previously. Another mentioned using MS cmd prompt and his explanation worked 100%. Make sure to have the appropriate CFG file (basic or advanced) in the Python27 folder. Also, be sure to open the downloaded cfg file in NOTEPAD in order to modify it for your devices S/N.
I used WinSPC, it was ezpz.
Thanks to all who contributed. Bud, if you have PayPal I would love to donate to your time in developing all of this. I don't have crypto but I will figure out how to pay that way if that's your preference (I don't blame you for wanting to stay away from sites like PayPal).
Again, everything works great on my new camera. No hiccups, no issues. It all went without an issue. It took approximately 2.5 hours, over half of that was me trying to figure out the WiFi connection and python
I'm running a windows 7 professional x64 system if that helps
