Hi test_man, this can vary based on your operating system and your installed version of Vision Acquisition Software. According to KnowledgeBase 328G9M7V: Where Do I Place My Camera File Once I Download It? , the camera files are typically found in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Shared Documents\National Instruments\NI-IMAQ\Data for Windows XP systems using Vision Acquisition 8.2.3 and beyond.

Also take a look at the NI-IMAQ readme file, which can be accessed from the start menu through Start » Programs » National Instruments » Vision » Documentation » NI-IMAQ. The following excerpt is taken from it:

·      If you are using Windows XP, the files for Camera Info, Camera Support, Data and text-based Examples (MSVB.NET, MSVC, and VB) are installed to

x:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\National Instruments\NI-IMAQ\, where x is the letter of the drive where NI-IMAQ is installed.


·      If you are using Windows Vista, the files for Camera Info, Camera Support, Data and text-based Examples (MSVB.NET, MSVC, and VB) are installed to

x:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\NI-IMAQ\, where x is the letter of the drive where NI-IMAQ is installed.
