Gige vision camera fails with trigger on

i have gige vision camera sca640-70gc and when i set the trigger mode on it gives fail with line1 and line2 while with trigger mode off it works ok

Hi,
Do you provide a trigger signal on the dedicated input line of your camera such as a TTL signal?

XML file for GigE Vision camera

Hello,
I am working on a design of GigE Vision camera. It should be very simple linescan camera. I implemented the whole required GigE Vision register set, can communicate with the camera in MAX. The problem is that I need to creata this XML file for the camera.There is this XML file here:
http://www.emva.org/cms/upload/Standards/GenICam_Downloads/SFNC_Reference_Version_2_0_0_Schema_1_1.x...
What should I do with it? My first version of the camera will have 2 funcions: turn it on and turn it off I am bit confused, because the xml file template has lots of functions, that I don't really need. Should I delete them? Or leave inside with default values? What does minimal configuration XML file need?

Thank you very much! Perhaps I was too concentrated on digging through various documents and missed the important info.
And one more question: how does NI software build the *.icd file? By reading XML file? Or by reading registers in my camera?
Both. The XML is processed by the GenApi software component which then translates it to register operations. The XML file thus controls what features are visible based both on the XML file as well as the camera registers (features in the XML may be conditionally available based on the <pIsImplemented< tag). Next, the IMAQdx ICD file contains the subset of features in the XML file that are available and are tagged as <Streamable>, meaning they can be saved to a settings file.

GigE VIsion Camera IP and Port setting in multicast mode (IMAQdx)

GigE VIsion Camera IP and Port setting in multicast mode (IMAQdx)
Hello, Everybody
I have NI-IMAQdx 3.5.0 , and I have Basler Camera (scA640-74gc) with GigE Vision Interface.
I run that camera in my computer as controller (Multicasting mode) with IP (239.192.0.1)
I detected that camera in another computer (to run it as listener) by LbVIEW .
my problem is
I run the Pylon Viewer from Basler (Monitor mode) after I detected that camera.
it was run successfully (I look to details of that camera it have same IP 239.192.0.1 and the port changed every time when i stop running in controller computer)
from where i can set fixed Port in multicasting mode??????
When I use Pylon Viewer in controlled computer and set the mode to multicast
I should set IP and port , then in listener computer I run Pylone Viewer (monitor mode) I saw same IP and same port which i set it in controller
I need a way in LabVIEW to set Port Number in multicasting mode...How I can do that
Best Regard
Alzhrani

Hi Alzhrani,
Unfortunately it is a bit more complicated because you would have to use the GVCP protocol and do a register read of a specific register on the camera that stores the multicast UDP port (that IMAQdx programs from the controller). However, this likely requires access to the GigE Vision specification in order to be able to format the messages correctly.

OSX support for Gige Vision cameras?

Is there any support in OS X for the huge line of Gige Vision cameras now available? There are only a few USB and Firewire cameras that work well with OS X. If I could use Gige cameras, it would open up a multitude of options for me, but I can't find any mention of support or SDKs for the Gige Vision protocol in Mountain Lion.

I do not use Gige, so I cannot test this with OS X, but it seems not.
This GEViCAM page http://www.gevicam.com/products/peripherals.html states that a PC is "... required for GEViCAM cameras..."
This GEViCAM page http://www.gevicam.com/downloads/sdk.html states that "... GEViCAM's software is officially supported under Microsoft Windows... Please contact us on SDK for other OS."
I suggest you contact GEViCAM directly http://www.gevicam.com/contactus/gevicam.html and ask them if their product can work with your system.

Running average or median of images from Gige vision camera

Hi all,
I have a Gige Vision camera(baselar's) I want to continously grab the images (video) and output the Average or median of the frames(10 frames atelast). My camera setting and pixels hieght widht are mono 8 and width and height are 1000. I tried to get the average in simple adding and division but was unsuccesfull in getting the final images can any one check where I can be wrong , attached is my vi.
thanks

That's easy. I don't even need to see your code to tell you what you're doing wrong. You are probably storing your data as 8-Bit unsigned, taking ten images and adding them together. The problem is that the largest value U8 can hold is 255, so you run out of space for the numbers to increase.
Grab the U8 image, cast it to a SGL, and convert image to array. Then add the previous array to the current array in a for loop, and divide by the total images. You can either display the image as a SGL, or cast it to some other type for saving to disk, since SGL is not supported in any common image file format.
Hi MoviJohn,
I tried putting imaq cast after imaqdx get image and giving the output of cast image to image to array, but it didnt work, i dont se the images at all.

GigE Vision how can I read the camera attributes

Hi,
we are using CVI 2012 and NI IMAQdx and we want to read out the camera attributes from a GigE vision camera.
We tried the IMAQdxEnumerateAttributes2 function but it didn't work. We got no information back.
Does anyone have an idea how we can read out the camera attributes?
thanks in advance
Oliver

Hello Topper,
yes we tried this but we didn't succeed.
But meanwhile we know why, here is our solution:
// Open a session to the selected camera
// initialisiert den G4GigE-Zeilensensor
rw = IMAQdxOpenCamera(G4GigE.CamName, IMAQdxCameraControlModeController, &G4GigE.session);
IMAQdxEnumerateAttributes2(G4GigE.session, attributeInformationArray, &uiCount, "CameraAttributes::CustomFeatures::Illumination", IMAQdxAttributeVisibilityAdvanced);
strcpy(String, "CameraAttributes::CustomFeatures::Illumination:lot1:lot_1_RED");
IMAQdxSetAttribute(G4GigE.session, String, IMAQdxValueTypeU32, 10);
It is necessary to type in the correct pathname to adress the attribute correctly. The path will be separated by :: If the path is not correct there will be no result.
To get the number of attributes it seams that the highest path name have to be adressed.
since we found this out we could run our application
greetings
Oliver

GigE vision on NI cRIO-9068

Hello:
We are planning a project in which we are intending to use GigE vision cameras and embedded vision processing. Our client is interested in the cRIO-9068 as the embedded platform.
The question is: Is there support for GigE Vision on the cRIO-9068?
I cannot find a document that says so, then I guess no official support is provided. If this is the case, I would like to know why. I believe that VxWorks targets do not support GigE, but this cRIO runs Linux. From the outside, I think it would be possible to provide GigE support for Linux. The only devices that seem to support GigE run Phar Lap ETS.
Thanks in advance for your kind reply.

Using LabVIEW since version 7.0
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello Bruce:
The application will be in a rough environment, in an industrial setting, that is why we want a rugged controller. We are planning to use the FPGA as a coprocessing unit of the RT processor, so we may have to pass the image to the FPGA and get it back afterwards as you say. The GigE requirement is important, because the cameras will be widespread, and the maximum cable length with other buses is an issue.
Best regards.

Hi, I was able to reformat my iPod and that worked. I read it on one of the threads and I am copy pasting the method below:
I opened the "My Computer" window and right-clicked on my ipod, and then selected "Format". I select "Yes" to format since I don't have anything on the nano to delete anymore.
I then Eject my nano from the computer and did a restart while the nano is disconnected from the computer.
Once Windows finish loading I reconnect the USB to the nano(back of computer) which automatically pulls up iTune. It asked me to name the new ipod detected and created a playlist for that specific ipod name.

Update trigger fails with value too large for column error on timestamp

Hello there,
I've got a problem with several update triggers. I've several triggers monitoring a set of tables.
Upon each update the updated data is compared with the current values in the table columns.
If different values are detected the update timestamp is set with the current_timestamp. That
way we have a timestamp that reflects real changes in relevant data. I attached an example for
that kind of trigger below. The triggers on each monitored table only differ in the columns that
are compared.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER T_ava01_obj_cont
BEFORE UPDATE on ava01_obj_cont
FOR EACH ROW
DECLARE
v_changed boolean := false;
BEGIN
IF NOT v_changed THEN
    v_changed := (:old.cr_adv_id IS NULL AND :new.cr_adv_id IS NOT NULL) OR
                 (:old.cr_adv_id IS NOT NULL AND :new.cr_adv_id IS NULL)OR
                 (:old.cr_adv_id IS NOT NULL AND :new.cr_adv_id IS NOT NULL AND :old.cr_adv_id != :new.cr_adv_id);
END IF;
IF NOT v_changed THEN
    v_changed := (:old.is_euzins_relevant IS NULL AND :new.is_euzins_relevant IS NOT NULL) OR
                 (:old.is_euzins_relevant IS NOT NULL AND :new.is_euzins_relevant IS NULL)OR
                 (:old.is_euzins_relevant IS NOT NULL AND :new.is_euzins_relevant IS NOT NULL AND :old.is_euzins_relevant != :new.is_euzins_relevant);
END IF;
[.. more values being compared ..]
    IF v_changed THEN
    :new.update_ts := current_timestamp;
END IF;
END T_ava01_obj_cont;Really relevant is the statement
:new.update_ts := current_timestamp;So far so good. The problem is, it works the most of time. Only sometimes it fails with the following error:
SQL state [72000]; error code [12899]; ORA-12899: value too large for column "LGT_CLASS_AVALOQ"."AVA01_OBJ_CONT"."UPDATE_TS"
(actual: 28, maximum: 11)
I can't see how the value systimestamp or current_timestamp (I tried both) should be too large for
a column defined as TIMESTAMP(6). We've got tables where more updates occur then elsewhere.
Thats where the most of the errors pop up. Other tables with fewer updates show errors only
sporadicly or even never. I can't see a kind of error pattern. It's like that every 10.000th update
or less failes.
I was desperate enough to try some language dependend transformation like
IF v_changed THEN
    l_update_date := systimestamp || '';
    select value into l_timestamp_format from nls_database_parameters where parameter = 'NLS_TIMESTAMP_TZ_FORMAT';
    :new.update_ts := to_timestamp_tz(l_update_date, l_timestamp_format);
END IF;to be sure the format is right. It didn't change a thing.
We are using Oracle Version 10.2.0.4.0 Production.
Did anyone encounter that kind of behaviour and solve it? I'm now pretty certain that it has to
be an oracle bug. What is the forum's opinion on that? Would you suggest to file a bug report?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Kind regards

Hello Jonny Apple Seed
Although your posted system info shows PowerMac G5 Dual 2.5Ghz, you are posting in MacBook Pro Discussions, so I assume you are asking about that Mac.
can you use the isight vision cam with bootcamp?
If you mean your MacBook Pro's built-in iSight camera and the Boot Camp version that comes with Mac OS X Leopard, you can. See Boot Camp Help for more info.
Can you use the isight vision cam with vmware fusion?
If you mean your MacBook Pro's built-in iSight camera, you can. See VMWare Fusion's Help, documentation, or web "Support" pages for more info.
The Boot Camp beta has expired, so you cannot download drivers from Apple.com. Use the iSight drivers from the Boot Camp that came with your OS X Leopard.

Can flash app work with GigE ethernet Camera?

Hi there,
Have anyone have similiar experience work with GigE ethernet camera with flash app?
recently need to test high resolution with high fps such as 1600x1200 @60 fps work with flash application or it required to via other C#/delphi/C++ programming to work together?
In windows xp environment
all GigE are connected local , not to internet server.
this product looks like fit my need :prosilica GX1660
please be advised,

The best way you can go in my opinion is developing a java application that connects and controls the camera, then you can use merapi to call java functions
Merapi is a Java-AS3 bridge (http://merapiproject.net/)

Do IMAQdx and NI hardware support GigE Vision 2.0?

Hello,
From my brief research, GigE Vision 2.0 has some very nice features I'm after that aren't supported by the earlier GigE Vision 1.x standards:
Camera-side compression
IEEE 1588 (PTP) synchronization and timestamping
Does NI currently support these? If not, are there any plans to add support in the near future?
Thanks!

Hi Eric,
Thank you for your informative reply.
Perhaps I've been trying to solve an XY problem, so I'll explain my context.
I have a customer who wanted 1280 x 1024 images, saved to disk at 30 fps, from 4 cameras simultaneously. Each image is to be associated with a GPS time and position, so that the image can be correlated with other data sources (the system also performs other live measurements). He doesn't need raw uncompressed data, so we acquired 8-bit colour images and then saved them as JPEG files.
The customer chose a GigE camera, so we built him a system with 2x PXIe-8234. We noticed that the PXIe-8820's CPU was barely keeping up with the compression, so we upgraded to a PXIe-8135 controller. This controller handled the load comfortably.
For the timestamps, I simply logged the GPS time at the instant I called the IMAQdx Grab VI. There's a bit of uncertainty involved, but it's acceptable. I guess IEEE 1588 level precision isn't necessary after all.
Now, the same customer wants a new system which captures 1900 x 1200 images from 6 cameras simultaneously. I'm not sure if the CPU can handle the load (and we don't currently have a camera to run tests with, unfortunately), so I was looking at ways to reduce the CPU load. Camera-side compression came to mind, and I assumed that I can write the pre-compressed image directly to disk as a JPEG file. (I haven't yet checked to see if the disk can handle the required write speeds, but that's a separate issue)
We are open to other protocols though. Would you recommend something other than GigE Vision? (No hardware has been selected yet, so we'll probably select based on the chosen protocol)
Thanks again!
