How can I programatically change the slave acquisition mode of my pci-1409?

In my LabVIEW application I need to be able to programmatically change the slave acquisition mode from standard to external HV lock. I couldn't find this property listed in the property node.

Nan,
When you change this property in MAX, you are actually modifying the camera file for the session (*.icd file). These file can be modified just like a text file. You could programtically modify parse and modify the "SlaveAcqMode (STANDARD)" line in the camera file to reflect the mode you want to use. Below is a KB that explains how to parse and modify an *.iid file, you can use the same method on the icd file.
