Manual setup steps

Only use these instructions if you did not install the Spinnaker SDK on your machine.

Add the "flirimaging" group and make yourself a member of it

sudo addgroup flirimaging
sudo usermod -a -G flirimaging ${USER}

Bump the usbfs memory limits

The following was taken from here. Edit the file /etc/default/grub and change the line default to:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash usbcore.usbfs_memory_mb=1000"

Then

sudo update-grub

If your system does not have /etc/default/grub, create the file /etc/rc.local, and change its permissions to 'executable'. Then write the following text to it:

#!/bin/sh -e
sh -c 'echo 1000 > /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/usbfs_memory_mb'

exit 0

Setup udev rules

echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="1e10", GROUP="flirimaging"' | sudo tee -a /etc/udev/rules.d/40-flir-spinnaker.rules
echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="1724", GROUP="flirimaging"' | sudo tee -a /etc/udev/rules.d/40-flir-spinnaker.rules
sudo service udev restart
sudo udevadm trigger

Logout and log back in (or better, reboot)

sudo reboot
