Photron SA3 Camera driver

[meb353]

Hello,

I would like to know if NI Vision supports the Photron SA3 fast camera. If so where can I find the drivers for it, and also in general how to search for the camera drivers on ni.com?

Thanks.

Hi MEB353,

Try this KB: Is My Camera Supported?  You can find KnowledgeBase articles by searching keywords on NI.com. I used the keywords "camera supported" to find that KB.  Thanks.

I’ writing a program to control a SA3 Photron Camera (attached). I would like to arm acquisition by an external trigger (test event), wait for acquisition to finish, write images to file on the PC.  

The problem I’m facing is that out of the “PDC_Get live Image Data.VI” I only have zeros values (Black Image). If you are familiar with Photron Camera Control please check if I correctly initiated the Camera.

Are there any existing programs for the purpose I described above?

Thanks,

Marco

Hi MarcoM,

You may have more luck creating a new thread on our Vision forums to increase your chances of finding users who are familiar with your specific hardware.  Additionally, please provide your software versions as well as any drivers that you're using, specifically the ones required for the PDC VI's.

Thanks!
