Variable Image data to NI Framegrabber

 

I am developing a cameralink camera wherein

the user will be able to toggle via serial various

pixel lengths for a given line in a linescan camera.

 

Mainly, I will do pixel binning via the camera's

FPGA.

 

Using NI framegrabbers, will I be able to display

this using one or no .icd file?

 

Thankyou.

Hello csk,

 

You should be able to make your own .icd file using the Camera File Generator utility. You can download it from this link : http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/14207. You can even use this utility to test serial communication with your camera. 

 

If you are using LabVIEW, you will be able to use the IMAQ Serial subVIs to send and receive serial information between the framegrabber and camera. 

 

I hope this answers your question.
