Starting and stopping Flir

Flir administration is performed using the “flir” command line utility. You must first ssh into the host system. The Flir utility is installed by default in /usr/local/flir/bin.

The following command options are available:

  • Start: Start the Flir system

  • Stop: Stop the Flir system

  • Status: Lists currently running Flir services and tasks

  • Reset: Delete all data and configuration and return Flir to factory settings

  • Kill: Kill Flir services that have not correctly responded to Stop

  • Help: Describe Flir options

For example, to start the Flir system, open a session to the Flir device and type:

/usr/local/flir/bin/flir start
