Question about Gige Camera and Sapera .dll

[ThomasdaTrain]

Where might I be able to find resources or information about connecting Teledyne Dalsa's Sapera LT software to my Genie Nano-10G C8200 camera through their .NET framework using their .dlls that were provided. I am very confused reading through all of their documents provided through the software documentation manuals including:

• Genie Nano-10G Series Camera User’s Manual
• Teledyne GigE Vision Interface User Manual and Optimization Guide (Edition 6.0)
• Sapera LT .NET 9.0 Programmer's Manual
• Sapera LT 9.0 User's Manual

Note: the last two are exclusively found by downloading and installing the software

I was wondering if there are any other resources on the LabVIEW side that might help me understand what is going on. Also, I previously used the Vision Acquisition Software (NI-VAS) to get the camera initially working but wanted to change it as I've heard NI-VAS doesn't support the entire 10 Gpbs upload speeds that I want. This statement is potentially wrong and could fix all my issues if I just have to re-install VAS. 

I have just started learning about C++,.NET,LabVIEW integration with .dll's, etc. So please let me know where I might be able to find information or how I might be able to go about getting 10 Gbps from the camera. Thanks!

Teledyne probably uses propreitary udp packet design for high fps mode.

I've seen cameras switching to low fps mode on GigE standard.

Try to find a simple, working .net example and mimic it in LabVIEW using https://forums.ni.com/t5/Developer-Center-Resources/Calling-NET-Assemblies-from-LabVIEW/ta-p/3523180

If you upload your chosen  .cs example with your .vi, we could guide you.

Hello, Thomas.

     Are you a serious user of LabVIEW?  Do you want to participate in the Forum, where a bunch of LabVIEW experts "hang out" and try to help LabVIEW users (such as yourself) "solve your LabVIEW Programming Problems?

     You joined the Forum 3 days ago, made a single Post, had @Quiztus2 (who clearly has GigE experience) offer to help, and you've not been back.  Maybe you are not serious about learning LabVIEW and figuring out how to use Sapera software with your GigE camera.

     Please do us the courtesy of responding to your post and providing the information that will allow us to help you.

My apologies everyone.

I didn’t realize what I was doing was considered rude. I’m a student and had homework consume my time. Anyways, I am hoping to fully read through and look through all of the documentation this weekend so that I can prepare a better example for you guys to look at. In my limited experience, I’ve found it often helps to make a mostly complete program that others can tweak and help me understand. 

Thanks again for helping me out. It’s much appreciated.
