PCI-1410 and LabVIEW 8.5

I am using PCI-1410 frame grabber and LabVIEW 8.5,

How can I activate the frame grabber with LabVIEW?

Grab picture, set camera parameters to the grabber etc'

 

I installed the frame grabber driver and I have a camera connected and interface was configured for it in NI-MAX. 

Also, I installed NI-IMAQdx and vision development module but still cannot find any VI's for this application. 

 

I will appreciate your assistance. 

 

Thanks,

Moti.

Seems like the LabVIEW support is not installed along with the IMAQdx.

Muks,

 

Thanks for your response.

I did installed NI-IMAQdx 3.7 and NI Vision Acquisition 8.2 which I have (I aware that these are quit old), and did activate the SW.

Is there any LabVIEW support or some patch for the versions that I use ?

The link which you placed is for newer version which should be purchased.

 

Thanks,

Moti.

Hi, Moti,

 

1. You don't need NI-IMAQdx for PCI-1410. For this framegrabber you need NI-IMAQ driver instead of IMAQdx! IMAQdx intendend for USB/GigE/1394 cameras

2. For LabVIEW 8.5 you need IMAQ ver 3.8 - 4.4, so you can download latest Vision Acquisition Software 2010.03 and it should work.

Hi Moti,

 

Once you do have the proper software installed (and are using NI-IMAQ instead of IMAQdx), you should be able to load up an example program in LabVIEW to get yourself up and running.  Navigate to Help>>Find Examples>>Hardware Input and Output>>IMAQ

 

There are some basic examples in here to get you started.  You'll just need the camera name from MAX (most likely img0 or cam0) as input.

 

Cheers,
