Software TIM Connect

thermoIMAGER TIM

9.1

Installation and Initial Start-up

Uninstall previous versions of the PI Connect before installing the new software. To this use the

Un-

install

icon in the start menu.

All drivers are booted via Windows OS automatically. A driver installation is not necessary.
By default the program starts automatically in English.

Insert the installation CD into the according drive on your computer. If the

autorun option

is acti-

vated the installation wizard will start automatically.

Otherwise start

setup.exe

from the CD-ROM. Follow the instructions of the wizard until the installation

is finished.

The installation wizard places a launch icon on the desktop and in the start menu:

Start > Programs >

TIMConnect.

To connect the camera to the PC, plug the USB cable to the camera first. Afterwards connect it with the
PC.

To disconnect the camera and the computer remove the USB cable from the computer first and then

disconnect it from the camera.

Start the software now.

At the initial start the software asks for the calibrations files which are available via internet or on the CD.

Install the calibration files at first start of the software.
