National Instruments PCI 1410 Image grabber in Labview

[timjm]

What type of input node should be used to take images from a camera connected to the NI PCI 1410 image grabber card in Labview.

Thanks.

You should be using VIs found under the Vision and Motion»NI-IMAQ palette.  The easiest way to check out a working example though is to open the NI Example Finder and look under Hardware Input and Output»IMAQ»High-Level.  Open HL Grab.vi or HL Snap.vi as good examples of retreiving images from your frame grabber.

You'll see that there's not a specific input node that you'll use.  You will use the IMAQ Init function and pass in a string value for the Interface Name. Alternatively, you could use the Vision Acquisition Express VI.
