device name for frame grabber extension board

[dbenvegnu]

I am trying to determine the device name for the NI-1433 frame grabber extension board so that I can use the IMAQ IO library to control the digital ports on the extension board. How can I determine the device name?

Here is another way of explaining my problem:  NI-IMAX is not recognizing the Camera Link Extension Board (which has 8 TTL IO lines on it) as a RIO device, so I do not have a device name to input into imaqIOOpen as I attempt to open an IMAQIO_SESSION.  What do I need to do to have the Extension Board recognized as a RIO device?

Hey,

Welcome to the NI Forums!

The extension board is not supposed to show up on NI MAX as it is dependent on the main board. Please check the article below to get to know how to access it:

And with more detail on the corresponding manual that is linked at the end of the same article.

Hopefully that helps.
