how do i use IMAQ Find CoordSys (Pattern 2)

Can anyone tell what's wrong with my VI?  I'm completely new to LabView, but someone told me it may be a good solution to my project at school.
 
Right now I have a VI that's supposed to capture images of fan blades with the NI 1722 Smart Camera.  The VI (or program) that I have is supposed to determined the positioning of the tip of the fan blades along the Y-Axis (X-Coordinates are completely ignore since the displacement measurement I want to find is when a blade has gone up or down in the picture).  The program figures out which part of the blade to analyze by using a template that I created through the NI template Editor.  This is all fine, this part works, but then when I run the program, the values fluctuate, meaning eventhough there is no object in the image, the displacment is supposed to just read 0, but it doesn't, it sees a value which I believe is the position of just the first blade.  Now I dont know why this error that seems to be coming from the "IMAQ Find CoordSys (Pattern 2)" is happening.  I was able to determine where the error was coming from by running my code in the "highlight execution."
 
I've been working on this program for some time now and I thought it was working fine until I found this error.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi memeje83,
It appears you have been in touch with one of our applications engineers here at NI over the last few days, is this the case? If so, once we have some more information for you, we'll be getting in touch with you directly and also posting a follow up on the forums for the benefit of everyone else. In the meantime, if any other customers on the forums have any input or advice they'd like to give, please feel free to do so!
