Checking External Camera Connectivity

[djspivey]

Hello,

I am trying to find the best way to check the connectivity of an external camera with my computer using Labview 2011.  More specifically, I would like to check the camera's connectivity while it is in use to make sure that it remains connected to the computer throughout the whole run of the program.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!  

Thanks!
