The PC should be IBM compatible running MS Windows XP or 2000, with a CD drive, and a USB port or an
SD card reader. The “IRISYS 4000 Series Imager” application can be used for analysis of images previously
saved onto an IRI 4010 SD card, or for downloading a live thermal image from the IRI 4010 via a USB cable.
