NI-IMAQ for 1394 und LabView 8.2

Hallo,
ich habe hier LabView 8.2 und wollte die NI-Vision Toolbox (Version 8.20) ausprobieren. Dazu habe ich diese und die NI-IMAQ for 1394 Treiber (Version 2.01) ebenfalls installiert.
Im MAX erscheint die Kamera und läßt sich ansprechen.
Wenn ich jetzt in LabView die Kamera einbinden will fehlen mir die VI's für die FireWire-Kameras.
Es existieren nur die normalen NI-IMAQ VI's für NI Hardware und auf der Platte finde ich auch keine VI's.
Wie bekomme ich die NI-IMAQ for 1394 VI's in LabView 8.2 hinein?
Bin für jede schnelle Hilfe und Anregung dankbar, da für die Probephase für NI Vision in 14 Tagen abläuft.
Danke im voraus

Hallo Michael,
NI-IMAQ for 1394 2.0.1 unterstützt LabVIEW ab 7.0.
Typisch unterstützt NI die letzten 3 Versionen von LabVIEW, das wären demnach 7.0, 7.1 und 8.0. Definitiv war NI-IMAQ for 1394 2.0.1 vor dem Release von LabVIEW 8.2 verfügbar. Ich denke, ohne Update auf eine aktuelle Version der NI Vision Acquisition Software wird das unter LabVIEW 8.2 nichts.
Der Support für NI-IMAQ for 1394 ist übrigens für 2008 (den Monat hab ich nicht parat) abgekündigt. Statt dessen spricht man digitale Kameras über NI-IMAQdx an. -> Details entnimmst Du am besten der NI Homepage.

Ni-imaq for 1394 camera support for sony dv cameras

Hello,
I am wondering if there is any way to capture images from my sony mini dv recorder (DCR-PC101 NTSC) to Labview. Is it possible through ni-imaq for 1394?
Thank You.

Hi charliec,
Support for mini dv cameras is not currently available with the IMAQ 1394 driver. The only way to access the files captured by the camera are to download them to disk then open them with LabVIEW (or some other programming environment).

Is QICAM supported by IMAQ for 1394 driver?

Have looked at the following link for FireWire camera support.
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/3efedde4322fef19862567740067f3cc/afded7f599e8a73a8625689e007672e5?OpenDocument
Looked at the data sheet (attached) for the camera we are considering and it says 12-bit output. Would this camera work with IMAQ for 1394? The link above mentions the outputs supported are 8-bit and 16-bit.
Thanks for your help.

Hello CarlosY.
As the link above mentions, the thing that is required for a FireWire camera to be compatible with our driver is that it is DCAM compliant.
The KnowledgeBase is not totally clear about different monochrome bit depths other than 8 and 16, but they are supported. I was unable to confirm from the attached QICAM datasheet whether that specific camera is DCAM compliant, but it appears that it will be fine. Again, the bit depth of 12 should not be a problem.
Hope this clarifies it for you!

Attempting to control Sony DFW-VL500 via IMAQ IEEE-1394 and LabView 7.0

I'm attempting to get images from a sony DFW-VL500 camera. I defined it as a device in MAX 3.0: the grab and snap functions seem to work. However, I cannot save video (only still images work).
This is a non-issue since what I would like to program in Labview 7.0 is to preview a continuous image and then snap individual frames. However, I keep incurring a -1074364408 error. Has anyone been able to get a functional VI that grabs images with this camera? Furthermore, is there a way for me to control the Zoom and Focus via LabVIEW? Any help will be appreciated.

The error you are receiving is a "Function not supported error" - which function does this error occur at? Make sure that your camera supports this feature and that you are calling it correctly.
I do know that this camera is supported by the NI-IMAQ for IEEE-1394 driver, version 1.5. If you don't have this latest version, you'll want to update that - although since it is not a free download, you'll have to call in to NI to get it.
In order to program what you are discussing, take a look at the following linked example program.
http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/niepd_web_display.display_epd4?p_guid=B45EACE3E1DB56A4E034080020E74861&p_node=DZ52490&p_source=External
You'll have to replace the regular IMAQ functions with 1394 functions, but other than that it should be th
e same.
Hope this helps -

Labview 7.0 and NI-IMAQ IEEE-1394 1.1

I upgraded to Labview 7.0 and have NI-IMAQ IEEE-1394 1.1
Is there a compatibility issue between these two? The data type for IMAQ Image Create in 7.0 is different than in 6.0 and also different from IMAQ1394 Get Image.
Is there a solution to this?

Hello.
There is a possibility that you are having some issues due to driver incompatibility problems. The current version of the NI-IMAQ for 1394 driver is 1.5.3. The following download page will take you to the update to 1.5.3, but you must have 1.5 or higher to run this updater.
In your case, you should probably call in to your local inside sales representative and request your free upgrade to 1.5.3 on CD, or you could go to http://www.ni.com/advisor/ to go through the upgrade advisor for your software.
I believe that with a fresh installation of the latest driver, your issues should
go away.

If you look at How Can I Tell If My IEEE 1394 (Firewire) Camera Is Supported by the NI-IMAQ for 1394 you will find the dragonfly listed there.
You will also find a reference to Digital camera specification: 1.3 in the camera data sheet which confirms this.

NI-IMAQ for IEEE 1394 cameras under LabVIEW 6.1

I just purchased this driver for Firewire cameras and got the latest version 2.0 that seems to only work for LV 7 and higher. Which version works for LV 6.1 and where can I get it? (Older versions of these drivers don't seem to be available under the driver pages at ni.com in the usual place.) I suppose i need to "downgrade" now. Any insights?

Hello bernhardschnurr,
Thank you for using our discussion forums. You will have to use NI-IMAQ for IEEE 1394 cameras ver 1.5.3 or earlier for support for LabVIEW 6.1. These drivers are not available for download on our website. I would recommend contacting your local NI support and they can help you get these drivers. Please visit http://www.ni.com/support/ and choose to phone NI.

I just got it working with DV camcorder today. But I haven't update my
website. I need to do a final test over this weekend. On next Monday I
will post an update in m
y website. So far I've tested on Cannon ZR45MC
DV camcorder and it worked fine. I can capture the live video or tape
from the camcorder through firewire and sample the image data out of
it. And was able to remote control the recording action.

Configuring MAX for 1394 camera from application vi.

I can configure and save settings and attributes in MAX. I would like to access this file from my application to change settings when I start my vi.

The configuration files are located in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-IMAQ for IEEE-1394\Data. The attributes you configure in MAX show up in the camera file. You can programmatically change the attributes in LabVIEW. Check out the shipping example Grab and Attributes Setup. You can find the example by going to Help>>Find Examples. Then browse by Directory Structure. Then open the IMAQ folder and then the IMAQ1394 examples.llb. There you'll see the Grab and Attributes Setup.vi.

NI-IMAQ for USB 1.1.1 will not install with LV8 and Vision 8.0 or 8.21

When I try to install NI-IMAQ for USB 1.1.1 I get a message that vision 7.1 or higher with Labview 7.0 or higher; or Vision Assistant 7.1 or higher is required, I have tried the vision 8.0 and vision 8.2.1 packs with Labview 8.0 with no success.

Hello mcg,
I am not familiar with NI-IMAQ for USB 1.1.1. The newest version I know of that we have is 1.0 at the following link:
NI-IMAQ for USB Cameras 1.0
You are correct that you need LabVIEW 8.0 and Vision 8.0 installed. After this you should be able to install this very simply. If that's still giving you trouble, try repairing LabVIEW and repairing Vision (Start » Control Panel » Add or Remove Programs » National Instruments Software » LabVIEW or Vision » Repair).
Please let us know if you have any more trouble on this. Please post a screenshot of the error as well.

Cant install NI-IMAQ for USB Cameras

i tried to install NI-IMAQ for USB Cameras.but it cant get it to install its giving the error need higher version than 7.0 but i am using 8.0 .also it is saying that it needs vision 7.0 ........??wat are these error ..how can i get it install ????????help
thx
Regards

nolsqn,
Can you clarify what you have installed? You must have all of the following installed to get NI IMAQ for USB Cameras to install:
System Requirements:
- Windows 2000/XP (English,
Italian, Japanese, French, Italian, Norwegian, Dutch,
Spanish/Portuguese, Russian, and simple Chinese)
- LabVIEW 7.0 or higher with NI Vision 7.1 or higher for the USB LabVIEW support
- Vision Assistant 7.1 or higher for the USB Vision Assistant plugin module
- Vision Assistant 8.0 or higher for the USB Express VI
It sounds like you are missing Vision Development Module (this is what is referred to as NI Vision)? Is this true?

Problem with NI-IMAQ for usb

hi. i have labview 8.0 and vision 7.1. i installed ni-imaq for usb but the vi blocks didn't appear in function palet. does ni-imaq work with labview 8.0 and is it important to have the same labview and vision? if there is a new version of ni-imaq to work with labview 8.0 please send me the link.

Ali,
As far as compatibility, LabVIEW 8.0 is compatible with Vision 8.0, 8.2, and 8.2.1 -- it is not compatible with Vision 7.1 so that may be causing the issues you are seeing. LabVIEW versions are only compatible with the same, and newer versions of Vision. As far as IMAQ, here is a link to the Version Compatibilities of LabVIEW and IMAQ. Let me know if you have more questions!

Has anyone used the QuickUSB module (Bitswise Systems) to interface to a USB Camera via IMAQ for USB?

Has anyone used the QuickUSB module made by Bitwise Systems with LabVIEW for image acquisition. I have a USB camera and I'm trying to use the IMAQ for USB controls to no avail. Any input is appreciated.

Are you using the NI-IMAQ for USB functions or are you calling the QuickUSB libraries from LabVIEW? Unless the USB camera is DirectShow compliant, then it will not work with the NI-IMAQ for USB driver. You can use the Code Interface Node in LabVIEW to call external dll's, and it looks like from QuickUSB's website that is the best way to go. Hope this helps.

Ni IMaq IEEE-1394 v2.0 plug/unplug/enumeration

The IMaq IEEE-1394 v2.0 Driver contains some new missed function's espec. the Camera plug/unplug and enumeration.
I can't find any example, how to use this functions correctly. The Cam. plug/unplug functions are impl. by the IMAQ1394 Occurence Config. This Vi needs a valid Session ID, but is there none camera attached or the valid Cam. are detached, this Vi fails.
In the future of my project, there are up to 15 Camera's attached, based on two PXI-8252 1394 Host adapters run's under Lv7.1-RT

Dear Mr. Funke,
as starting point you can use the programming model of the imaq example ll occurence vi's, that ship with LabVIEW. Implement the imaq 1394 vi's in a similar order. Place a loop, in which you wait on the occurence.
Information how the imaq 1394 camera driver assigns interface numbers:
camX (where X is an integer, and the first one is 0) is the interface name and is specific to a single camera.
On Windows, the camera file is created when imaq1394CameraOpen is called (either through MAX or programmatically), and the imaq1394.ini file is updated. The imaq1394.ini file is created when the first camera is initialized. You can call imaq1394 Init with the interface name.
The camera order (cam0 vs. cam1) is determined by uuid (unique universal identifier) of camera. The lowest uuids are first. So if you plug in a camera, it will be cam0. If you plug in another one, it could be cam0 or cam1 depending on its uuid. If you have two cameras plugged in and you unplug cam0, cam1 will become cam0.
