In Measurement & Automation Explorer I can select color coding to Beyer 8 - (32 bit color) or to y(Mono8) - (8 bit b&w).
In Labwindows I can run "imaq1394GetAttribute (IMG1394_ATTR_IMAGE_REP)" and get the attribute for either color coding setting
(Beyer 8 = 4, y(Mono8) = 2) but set attribute "imaq1394SetAttribute (IMG1394_ATTR_IMAGE_REP)" is Not Settable. Is there any way to switch between the 2 settings within the same code.
I am already running the camera in color mode for color checking LEDs, but in the same code I want to use the camera in 8 Bit black and white to do character recognition.
