Photo camera with pci 1411

Hi,
I checked several posts for image aquisition but I did'nt understand wether I can use a digital photocamera with my PCI-1411. We have to take pictures regularly timed and we have available a compact photocamera and a reflex one (Canon 500D). Would a converter S-video to USB be anough to connect the camera to the PCI-1411?
Any suggestion is more than welcome!
Giacomo

Hello Giacomo,
Sorry for my late reply.
The flu and some other issues came in the way.
To be able to acquire images wit he PCI-1411 the only restriction is the type signal you're providing to its inputs.
In the User Manual (http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/372157d.pdf) You can find the 2 different supported types at page 3-2:
- (Composite) Video
- S-Video
More info can also be found in this document (http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/374550a.pdf)
The NI 1411 device supports both
NTSC and PAL color standards as well as the RS-170 and CCIR
monochrome standards.
So what you'll have to check is:
- Is there an S-video or Composite Video output on my camera? (I don't think this is the case with your cameras)
- Can I somehow convert my signal to S-Video/Composite Video?
There exist things that you can buy online for this.
Normally you can use any camera that has these types of outputs and that follow these standards:
- PAL/CCIR (25 frames/sec)
- RS-170/NTSC (29,97 frames/sec)

Raytheon 2000b camera with PCI-1422

I am trying to use a Raytheon 2000b camera with PCI-1422. I have downloaded the attached doc and icd file from NI.
1. As far as I now there is no proper NI cable for my camera, but the pinout is described in the doc file. I would like to purchase a cable, and solder a connector on it for my camera. Which cable should I choose, if I need the following pins on the PCI-1422 side: 1-32, 41-46, 49-50, 93-94, 99-100?
2. The icd file supports image acquisition only, attribute settings via serial line are not contained. I would like to add this feature, but I could not find any description about the icd files. Where can I find a document that would help me?

My problem is solved now.
But I don't know what is the exact solution.
The camera & cable provider and me tried as below.
try-1. connecting tm-1320-15 and 1422 with serial-enabled cable
try-2. changing 'OnBoardClock(20)' to 'OnBoardClock(25)'
With only 'try-1 ', it failed. but additional 'try-2' we could snap and grab the camera image.
And now, I can get images without serial-enabled cable, regardless of OnBoardClock speed.
I think the camera has been initialized with max's parameters(same as icd file) when the serial commnunication had enabled for the first time.
(I'll verify this assumption with new tm-1320-15 later.)
Thank you.
Tip : If tm-1320-15 and 1422 makes error because of parameter mismatching, reset the tm-1320-15's power.

I Photo came with my Mac. SL 9, I think.
I'm not that good with computers.
Please use terms on my level.
Just don't understand your computer language.
Thanks

Don't understand your question either. With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We need to know the details of your problem and situation, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
what do you see when you launch iPhoto to open your library?
what fixes have you tried before coming here?
where is you library located?
how long has this been occuring?
did you apple any updates or upgrades just prior?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

40GB iPod Photo came with FW cable, doesn't work with FW cable

I have a 40GB iPod photo that I love. I bought another (used) one for my wife, being careful to get the identical model so we could share things such as docks, cables, etc.
Her iPod works fine with the USB cable, but will only charge with the FW cable -- no computer can see her iPod through FW. I've reset the iPod, updated it with the iPod updater, but nothing. When I connect her iPod to any of my Macs (her 12" iBook, my 12" PowerBook, my G5 iMac) with FW, the iPod appears to be charging, but is not detected by the computer, nor are any of the iPod controls usable. It doesn't go to the "do not disconnect" screen, but simply freezes where it is until the FW cable is disconnected.
Specifics: both iPod Photos are the 40GB model M9585LL, version 1.2.1. The 2nd one CAME WITH a FW cable, which is why I'm puzzled that it won't work with it. Help?

Here is some info for the pinout for the iPod.
http://www.anythingbutipod.com/archives/2006/04/zen-vision-m-video-cable-other-4 pole-35mm-pinouts.php
You need to find the pinout of the camera cable you have.
Probably be easier to get get an AV cable with a 3.5mm plug to (whatever fits into your TV) cable.
Usually, you simply have to swap the Red and the Yellow for it to work properly.

How receive image from camera with PCI-bus

Hello all
Please help
me.
I have LV 7.1.1.
I wont
watch two and more images from cameras at the same time.
I have capture
card (PCI-bus) with 4 video-input.
What kind
of data must be transfered from this capture card to LV?
With respect
Aleksandr.

Hello Aleksandr
please provide more information, what type of video card do you have?
Have you configure the card so you can watch an image with MAX?
I suppose the card has the ability to capture more than one image at a time is that true?, however most of the cards that I know of, have several inputs but you can only display one image at a time, you can swith between them and capture and image from another input, to capture more than one unit at a time you would need to open/close sessions with the instrument/card such that you are switching from one input to another

Using pulnix tm-1320-15 lvds camera with pci-1422 lvds and ni's icd file

The camera provider give me a custom-made-cable.
Its pinout configuration is based on the ni's wiring diagram. (not opened)
But because of the problem of power supplying, the serial communication pins cannot be used.
With the icd file for tm-1320-15 in this site, I cannot get an image, but only the error messages of "IMG_ERR_TIMO" and dma error.
So I've tried some solutions suggested in this forum such as acquisition image reducing(the result is noisy one) and moving the 1422 closer to the cpu board. But all failed with that message.
I doubt that there must be an only one setting for tm-1320-15 camera and camera configuration in MAX 2.0 in case of "serial disabled", or the icd file is not
proven in lvds version.
(Is "OnBoardClock(20)" right? the camera works at 25MHz according to its manual. )
Is there anyone succeeded in this combination?
(Thank you for reading my poor english. T.T )

Blur video frame with NI PCI-1411 and JAI CV M-300 camera (urgent problem)

Hello,
I am new with Vision and I need some advice with a problem, which I encountered.
I have a computer with integrated NI PCI-1411 board, which is connected to a JAI CV M-300 camera. I am measuring a steel part which is positioned in a dark chamber. The part is put on a glass board and is illuminated from underneath with light.
The part is moving. I have to measure this part when it reaches the camera region. I have made a test with not-moving part and everything is perfect. Now, when I move the part I get blur frames from video (with these no part measurement is possible). I need specify, that the camera has no trigger, so it makes video all the time (this video is later inspecting with Vision Builder).
I have tried to change parameters in MAX, but no involvement. I have found no proper icd/file for the camera.
I also could use a SONY DXC-950P camera, if this is better.
How can I eliminate the blur from video frames? Or what am I doing wrong? Is the camera not good enough? Camera + trigger would get better images.
I have attached the video frame with moving object (static) and the blur video frame with moving object (dynamic).
Please give me a answer or ideas as soon as possible.
Thanks.

You are using an interlaced camera. It takes half the picture (every other line), waits a split second, then takes the other half of the picture (the other lines). When it puts the two images together, you can see the two positions it was in when the images were taken.
The best solution is to use a non-interlaced or progressive scan camera, which takes the entire image at one time. The Sony might be this type of camera, since it has a P in its name. I didn't look up the specs.
If you can't get the right kind of camera, your only other option is to use fields instead of frames. One field is the half image taken at one time. The image will be half the height of the original image, though, which can mess things up.
Another possibility is the reduce the resolution of the image. If you take every other pixel in both directions, you will have a very clear image that is half the size of the original. You can do this with Extract in LabVIEW, not sure if it is available in VBAI.

I'm using a Kodak M532 camera with a 2 gigabyte SD card. I just took 30 photos, all of which are visible on the screen. When I attempted to import them the last 15 were said to be in an unreadable format (no. 1117 on). Is there a fix?

I''m using a Kodak M532 camera with a 2 gigabyte SD card. I recently took 30 photos, all of which are visible on the camera's screen. When I attempted to import them the last 15 were said to be in an unreadable format (no. 1117 on). I deleted some 200 photos from the card, but photos that I then took, though also visible on the camera's screen, were also said to be in an unreadable format. Is there a fix?

There is an ongoing issue with Kodak cameras and 10.6. Workaround: Reformat the card with the camera and use a USB Card Reader.

Viewing photos imported with camera connector

Hello,
I just purchased a camera connector and was immediatedly able to import photos from my camera with no problems. However, the manual states that I should be able to view the photos by (1) Choosing Photos > Photo Import, and then choose the roll I want to view and (2) Choosing Browse to display my photos.
The problem I'm having is that after I choose my roll it only shows the roll info (11 photos, size 17.3 MB) and options for Delete Roll or Cancel. There is no Browse.
I'm using a 60 GB Video iPod with version 1.2 firmware.
Any help would be appreciated. I've already searched the discussions and didn't see anyone with this exact issue.
Thanks.
MacBook & G4 Quicksilver Mac OS X (10.4.8)

False alarm I guess. I didn't change any settings on the camera or iPod, but now I can browse through the imported pictures. Curious.

A "brand new" ipad mini 3 came with a photo

Received a "brand new" ipad mini 3 around a week ago. However, it came with a photo in the Photos folder that was taken on November 23, 2014. The photo looks like a screenshot with the QR code along with the ipad model code and the serial number of the ipad. It also says 99% in the photo. Did anybody run into this?

Sounds almost like an internal-use image (given the info that was in the image) that was not deleted or mistakenly taken before packaging. Did you try and scan the QR code (with another device that has the capability) and see what the QR code comes up as? (if it's internal use, it may not come up with anything)
Regardless, that's the first I hear of it.

Photoshop CS4 does not recognize raw photos taken with newer cameras. Anyone else have this problem?

Photoshop CS4 will not recognize RAW2 photos taken with my new Panasonic Lumix FZ100 camera. This camera is listed in Adobe's 6.2 Camera Raw update for Photoshop CS5 but cannot be loaded in CS4. I paid a lot of money for CS4 and don't want to buy CS5 just because I bought a new camera, but it appears that Adobe no longer updates Camera Raw for CS4 or with newer cameras. When I called the Help Desk to find out if there was some kind of patch I could get to make CS4 compatible with my new camera a gentleman in New Delhi informed me that he couldn't even answer my question until I paid $40 since answering questions about CS4 was a "paid service." I hung up in a rage. Does anyone else have this problem and is there a solution?

This camera is listed in Adobe's 6.2 Camera Raw update for Photoshop CS5 but cannot be loaded in CS4.
Adobe does indeed not update obsolete versions of Camera Raw for new camera types.
And guess what: It’s the camera producers who seem to like to change their raws – so how about spreading some of your indignation their way?

The upgrade is cheaper than buying the full version.
Anyway, you could try the free DNG Converter which should be able to handle everything the most recent version of Camera Raw can handle.

Does the new IOS 8 and instagram only allow pictures taken with the phone? as I can still choose from those, just not the ones I upload/save.
I don't know about instagram, but apps, that not yet have been upgraded to iOS8 can only access the photos that appear in the "Recently Added" album, because there is no longer a Camera Roll.
As a work-around, try to create an album of the photos you want to share to instagram. For other apps this helped to make photos accesible.

IPhoto allowed me to add location to photos taken by camera with no GPS. Photos doesn't have this facility. is there any way to do this?

From http://geotag.modesittsoftware.com/Photo_GeoTag/FAQs.html
1. Does Photo GeoTag work with iPhoto and Photos?
iPhoto and Photos store their image files in various undocumented locations, and they seem to store the image metadata in separate locations. If you edit an image in one of their sub-folders, iPhoto or Photos may not know about the change. Instead export the image from iPhoto or Photos, geotag it, and then import it back into iPhoto or Photos to see the geotagged location. In the future Apple may provide a means of accessing the image files directly, but for now you must geotag the photo before importing it, or if the photo is already in iPhoto or Photos, export, geotag, and then import.
So it would seem that it isn't much better than using iPhoto 9.6.1 to do the geotagging, exporting the original from that app, & importing it into Photos.

How do I delete my user ID photo, taken with the camera in the MacBook Pro. It keeps appearing randomly when I sign in....even after I make changes.

How do I delete my user ID photo, taken with the camera in the MacBook Pro (when you first buy and set up the computer...). The photo keeps appearing randomly, even after I've changed it to a "better picture". I can't get the change to "stick". Anyone else having trouble with this? Thanks!
