How to display Image grabbed by IMAQdx in CWIMAQViewer in VC++ 6.0?

[Antonio Yu]

Hello,

I use VC++ 6.0 and NIIMAQdx (Vision Acquisition 8.5) to acquire image from my Prosilica GE1380 GigE camera.  The definition of the image being grabbed is

Image *grabImg;

Afterwards, I want to display it in a CWIMAQViewer control. However, since my grabImg isn't of the CWIMAQImage type, I got errors doing that.

Anyone knows how I can do it? If you have any idea, please help me. I have spent several days on this issue...

Thank you!

Hi, for that image type you should call the imaqDisplayImage (which actually will create a new window). Alternatively, you can convert the image to a CWIMAQImage type (such as with the ArrayToImage method of the CWIMAQImage class. Check out the shipping documentation in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Vision\Documentation and C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-IMAQdx\Docs.
