Image error

[abikutn]

Hello,

I am using : DMK 42BUC03 camera for capturing images.

I have set up a program where after a stage moves one step, the camera captures an image of the target that is placed on the stage. Its a raster scan method. 

So if I have M x N steps ( horizontal x Vertical scan ) I have M x N pixels , an image is captured by dmk 42buc03 at each pixel. How ever I found out that the images at some pixels are bad and broken.

Please see the below examples for images that are bad, it looks like one part of the image is shifted and tailored at the other end.

The below are the examples of good images.

Could anyone please explain this behavior. I am using labview to control the camera.

Hi Abikutn, 

It looks like the camera taps are not configured correctly and are being rebuild in the incorrect order. You should be able to fix this by regenerating your camera file. 

You can regenerate your camera file by following these steps:

1) Unplug your camera.

2) Navigate to D:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\NI-IMAQdx and delete the xml folder along with any .icd and .iid files that relate to your camera. 

3) Plug your camera back in and find it in MAX. 

Please let me know if this helps

The attached code doesn't use any NI drivers to acquire the image. It is using a DLL provided by the manufacturer. You would have to request support from them to figure out how to resolve the issue.

They say it has something to do with CPU entering the idle state .
