September 10, 2007 - Everett, Wash. - Fluke upgraded its InsideIR software, a Windows-based PC application for thermal analysis and reporting that is included with Fluke Ti20 and Ti30 Thermal Imagers.
The application features tools that are designed to help users more easily identify and analyze captured images, and use them to plan thermography inspection routes and generate reports including temperature spots, histograms, isotherms, and emissivity and temperature compensation. The new InsideIR 4.0 upgrade features advanced analysis tools including points, lines, rectangles, ellipses, polygons and curved areas, as well as trending capability and an enhanced profile tool. It supports increased routing flexibility and provides users with reporting enhancements including trending and the ability to generate reports of up to four pages per image. Now available in ten languages, InsideIR software automatically checks the Fluke Web site and notifies the user if a newer version of software is available. An unlimited-use license of InsideIR software is included with each Fluke Ti20 and Ti30 Thermal Imager. The Version 4.0 upgrade of InsideIR software is available immediately as a free download to Fluke Ti20 and Ti30 users at.

I promised myself that I would stop buying thermal cameras now that I have retired. Well I broke my promise today. A week or so ago I found a decent thermal camera advertised on ebay for £300. I resisted it at the time. Today I saw that price had dropped to £250. The little devil inside me won the argument in my brain and I 'pulled the trigger' and bought it.
USB drivers for CableIQ. The USB drivers are installed automatically when you install CableIQ Reporter Software. If you have Windows® 7 or later,you must install the latest version of Cable IQ Reporter, otherwise the USB drivers will not be installed correctly. UPDATE: Cable IQ Version 1.80 is available.
What camera did I buy? It is a Raytek Ti30 circa 2005 model with 160 x 120 pixel A-Si microbolometer and 20fps frame rate. 
It has internal storage for 100 images, USB connectivity and a manual focus lens (that I believe to be a quality Germanium optical block that is worth the asking price on its own). The camera comes with some very nice software designed for preventative maintenance monitoring. New firmware and software versions are still available for download, as I will detail in a moment.
The title Raytek Ti30 may not be familiar to some readers, so how about FLUKE Ti30? Ring any bells? Raytek was bought by Danaher and they marketed the Ti30 thermal imaging camera under the original Raytek, and then FLUKE brand names. FLUKE changed the colours of the case from Grey/Black to FLUKE standard Yellow/Black. Fluke continue to support this camera and provide fee downloads of the firmwre and the analysis software on their site. Some may think 160 x 120 pixels at 20fps not very impressive, but bear in mind that the FOV is a narrow 17 x 12 Degrees so the image detail produced is similar to the 320 x 240 upgraded E4 that has approximately twice the FOV and the Ti30 has the advantage of manual focus.
This camera cost $9950 in 2005. For that money you get decent quality in both the optics and microbolometer. Worth every penny of the £250 I paid. The looks of this camera are more akin to a ray gun used in Star Trek but I can overlook the designers error in judgement in this respect.

The rest of the camera appears both functional and tidy. A lens cover slides down to reveal the lens and switch the camera on. A nice touch. The camera that I have purchased has a failed USB connector on its charging dock and needs a battery rebuild. Both are very simple repairs for me so of no consequence. There is another USB connector on the camera anyway.
The camera looks to be in nice condition overall. I suspect the fact that the camera was advertised as 'spares or repair' lead potential buyers to avoid it. That is when I normally get a bargain as I love repairing thermal cameras. I expect to be opening the camera for an internal inspection when it arrives so will post pictures of her internals later Fraser. Hi Frenky, I intend to create some threads related to thermal cameras in the near future. It is my intention to provide images of them, inside and out, plus sample images that they produce. I also hope to provide some insight into thermal camera repairs that I undertake.
I do have to protect my repair related income though so detail will likely be high level only. Sadly all this needs time and energy that sadly my Illness robs me of. I only have a few 'good' hours of exertion in me each day or I collapse in a heap!for a day! Even mental exertion is a problem so repairs do take quite some time for me these days.
