Hi,
I am using a triggered ring to acquire images from a SUI linescan camera. The acquisition is through a NI 1428 camera link and setup to be continuous, trigger each line, system memory, and 50 buffers. Within a while loop I extract a buffer and save it to a file. I have slowed the triggering down to 1Hz -- so every second it reads a 2KB image. Everything works fine for the first 49 images (buffers 0-48), At the #50 image (buffer index 49) the lost frame count increments to 1. Every image afterwards increments the lost frame count. Increasing the buffer number does nothing except to delay when the lost frame count begins (i.e. if increase buffer to 100, lost frames start at index #99). Every image still saves to disk fine and no images are missing -- so they don't appear to be "lost".
Any explanation of this phenomenon would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
