Call VBAI inspection using labview REAL TIME fieldpoint

[Talal]

Good Day,I Hope someone can help me with this, I wrote a program using labview (VI file) to call a VBAI inspection sequence and do some other labview things after the inspection is done. The program runs perfectly on my PC. My problem come when I put the VI in my fieldpoint cFP-2120 to run real time, I have an error saying (Front panel terminal 'NIVBAITargetControl':Type not supported in current target). I am using labview 2009, vision builder AI 2009 sp1, Fieldpoint cFP-2120 and NI smart camera NI-1744. I am going to put the file online hopefully it will help understand what I am doing. Any help will be much appreciated.

You cannot run VBAI on non vision targets. VBAI can only run on Smart Camera, EVS, CVS, and Windows machine. You could have VBAI run on your smart camera and used shared variables to sendresults to/from the Field Point target.

If you need to do something that won't work with this suggestion, let us know what you want to do and why this suggestion doesn't work.

It looks like you are trying to change the inspection the smart camera runs (maybe?). If this is the case, you could have the Field Point target update a shared variable the smart camera uses for product select (See the "Select Inspection" documentation for VBAI for more details on this).

Hope that helps,
