Running a Xenics Xeva in LabVIEW

[Sig_Bor]

Hi,

I am trying to run Xeva_snapshot.vi in LabVIEW 2012, but I encounter some problems. 

Xeva_snapshot.vi runs on two modes: USB and Framegrabber. 

If I run it on the Framegrabber-mode I get following error: (-1074396120) IMAQ Snap.vi .
This error can be traced all the way down to imgCreateBufList.vi, where we now have the error code: (-1074397163). 

Running the USB-mode will give me the same error code number (-1074396120) and the text IMAQ Get Image Pixel Pointer. The error can be traced down to IMAQ GetImagePixelPtr.

As far as I understand it seems like the program somehow doesn't get any input from the camera. However, the camera works well in Xeneth and also the LiveCamera_16bit.vi runs without a hitch. 
I am inecxperienced in LabVIEW and have absolutely no clue on what to do. I have not written or changed any of the mentioned .vi's, so as far as I know they should be in their original state.

I hope you can help.

Hi Sig_Bor,

Unless the VIs you are talking about are in vi.lib, you will have to upload them so we can even start to check for a problem. I even have vision acquisition software installed and don't have them. Can you upload

Xeva_snapshot.vi

LiveCamera_16bit.vi

Hi again,

I am sorry for the delayed answer, but I had to spend some time teaching myself LabView in order to understand anything. I realised my last question was idiotic because I simply hadn't connected anything to the Xeva_snapshot.vi. Now that I am older and wiser I have encountered a new problem I hope maybe you could help me with:

I have written a program called SnapAndSave.vi which initialise a Xeva camera, sets some properties, snaps and saves a photo before shutting it all off again. It can run on two mods, Framegrabber or USB mode, but the latter leads to an error in the program. 
I am trying to snap a photo in the USB-mode. Everything seems to be in perfect order until I reach Xeva_snapshot.vi. My problem is that I don't understand what happens in the third frame of the Flat Sequence Structure in Xeva_snapshot.vi, and where my error occurs. It always runs the XC_GetFrame and the second case structure argument will be "true", leading to error 5201. Where it now says "Copyframeproblem" there was a sub-vi called XC_CopyFrame.vi, but it could not be found on the computer. My guess is that if I were to have a proper sub-vi here this could solve the problem, but I have no clue on how that .vi should look like or what it should have as an output.
