Why is my USB camera recognized in MAX but not in LabView?

I am trying to use myRiO to acquire video using a Logitech HD Pro Webcam C920. 
I am using LabView 2013 and have the NI-IMAQdx 4.2.0.3.0 software installed on the myRIO. 
I have tried a couple sample programs: https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-3587 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7tMeKshd38. 
I plugged my Logitech camera into the myRIO USB port. In both cases, LabView failed to recognize my Logitech camera. However, in both cases, it was able to use the integrated Webcam in my laptop to acquire images. When I disabled the integrated camera, it did not find any camera. 
Here is a screenshot of the error when I disabled the integrated camera:
However, when I look at the MAX, the Logitech camera appears and is able to acquire images:

David,
Have you tried deleting your "session in" control & recreate it? I have come across situation a while back where the control did not get refreshed with latest values from Max and it gave me pretty much same errors as what you see (I believe it was due to a small name change of the resource which did not get refreshed in the session control).  I say that because you mentioned camera resource getting detected properly with Max & working. Doesn't hurt to give it a try...

  • Camera works in MAX but not in LabVIEW

    I've been struggling a lot with getting a DCC3240M camera from Thorlabs working in LabVIEW. The supplied software (Thorcam) works as it should. However, the LabVIEW SDK does not work as it should, it gives an error 155 "the operation is not supported".
    Instead of the SDK I tried the DirectShow drivers and now the camera turns up in MAX and works as it should. It also shows up with IMAQdx Enumerate Cameras.vi and in the Vision Acquisition Express vi. BUT when I try to run either IMAQdx Open Camera.vi or the Express-vi it doesn't work. Open Camera gives a DirectShow error code 0x80040275 "No capture hardware is available, or the hardware is not responding." And when i try to select the camera in the express vi, a red icon appears and I can only select "Cancel":
    It's really really annoying that the camera evidently works with the provided drivers, but I cannot use it in LabVIEW.
    I would be grateful for any ideas of what is wrong. I am running 32-bit LabVIEW on 64-bit Win8.1.

    Issue solved!
    I thoroughly removed all drivers that came with the camera and then I installed the manufacturers drivers (IDS) instead of Thorlabs drivers. And now it works, the camera still shows up in MAX and doesn't work. But now the provided VIs work. So I'm happy. It only took me a week to figure it out.

  • Camera detected in MAX but not found in Labview

    Hello,
    I have a Thorlabs USB camera (DCC1645C). I have installed the drivers, and MAX is detecting the camera but when I try to open the camera with NI-IMAQdx, it doesnt appear. I have also tried to open the camera with NI-IMAQ but I wasn't able.
    If I try with Vision Express/Vision adquisition, the camera is displayed, I am able to select it and configure the camera adquisition, but when I execute the program there an error: "camera not found".
    It would be great some help.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    What is your LabVIEW version, your Vision software versions and iMAQdx version?
    Since Thorlabs is using USB 2.0, you can read about the USB 2.0 section of this link: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/4331B4AA3AE95233862574C200539A2F 
    Check if you have the required iMAQdx driver and its compatibility with your other NI softwares:

  • Device works fine with MAx but not with Labview visa serial

    I have a Monarch rpm sensor hooked up to Monarch tachometer , it gives error while coding in labview and works fine in Max if the sensor doesn't read 0. I have written simple RS-232 programs never had an error but this one is giving errors ..not ablt to fix it..please help

    No device can actually measure a speed of zero.  It can only specify that the speed is less than some minimum, which depends on how long you are willing to wait for an answer.
    I do not know anything about your instrument, but I would guess that you are getting an error which is the equivalent of "The instrument has waited the maximum permissible amount of time and did not detect any measurable motion."  This is the instrument's way of saying that the speed may be zero, or very slow, or something is broken so that it cannot make a measurement but it cannot detect the problem.
    Look at the manual for you instrument to see how it responds to the zero speed condition.  This error may be normal.  If so, you need to capture the particular error code and handle it however you think is appropriate.

  • FPGA target visible in MAX but not in LabVIEW

    Hey!
    I recently installed a RIO device. Before installing the hardware, i installed FPGA module & RIO 3.0 as directed. Now i can see the device in measurement & automation explorer, but its not in 'Add targets & devices' list. It says 'No devices found' in existing devices tab. I cant understand the problem. :/

    Hi there bananas321,
    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

  • Why does the counter work in MAX, but not Labview?

    Please help, I have been away from Labview for over 3 months, and I am quite rusty....
    Last year, I successfully configured NI9401 to measure period (seconds) by counting the rising edges of my sensor signal.  Since then, I have aquired a new PC, and loaded all my software into it, including the Labview VI's that successfully worked on the old computer.
    I can see the digital signal using MAX and the test panel for the NI9401, so, I know my wiring and my TTL signal is OK, but, when I try to run the attached VI, nothing happens except the error below..  How do I tell this VI to look for the signal on MOD3/CTR0 and channel 14?
    Thanks. I am sure it is a small adjustment...this worked fine a few months ago...not sure what is wrong now.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    OK, now.  Resolved the issue. The vi is fine, but, some shaky wires were identified...worked in MAX but not in the vi.  Now that the connections have been tightened up, it works for both.  Sorry for the inconvenience.

  • IPhone 5 is recognized by iPhoto but not iTunes (OSX 10.6.8, iTunes 10.7, iPhoto 7.1.5)

    I am helping a friend with her new iPhone 5.
    Issue is that it is recognized by iPhoto but not iTunes.
    iPhone 5 16GB, iOS 6.1.4
    OSX 10.6.8v1.1, iTunes 10.7, iPhoto 7.1.5
    Computer: iMac C2D 2.4 GHz (Early 2008)(iMac8,1), 1 GB RAM,
    History, recently updated in-place from 10.5.8 Leopard to 10.6.8v1.1 SL, just for the iPhone 5.
    Installed iTunes 10.7 (as we do not like interface and loss of separate Playlist view in iTunes 11).
    Noted that iPhone 5 stipulates that iTunes 10.7 or higher is required -- So should be OK there.
    Initially iPhone was recognized by both iPhoto and iTunes. Then shortly later, iTunes did not see it anymore, was missing from iTunes Devices list.
    Called Apple Support, agent walked us through removing iTunes and the iTunes Receipt packages.
    Then Reinstalled iTunes 10.7. Ran Permissions Repair. Restarted computer.
    Seemed all good, iTunes (10.7) saw and synced and updated the iPhone.
    But Now, after two or three weeks, when user plugged in her iphone and ran iTunes, it did not show the iPhone at all, though iPhoto did start up and show pictures.
    So the iMac computer sees the iPhone5 well enough to get picture data, but apparently not well enough for iTunes sync.
    (she tends to use the wall charger and not plug it into the iMac very much at all).
    In all other known respects, both the iPhone5 and the iMac C2D seem to function normally.
    Any thoughts?
    I looked at KB article: http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/itunes/
    And at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 (iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X).
    And finally am thinking we may need to ALSO do the uninstall via: https://support.apple.com/kb/ht1747 (Remove Apple Mobile Device Service).  But I have not visited with here to do that yet.........)
    Any thoughts on best way to proceed?
    Thanks.

    What error message ar eyou getting. Why do you say it will not allow you to download?
    Verify you meet all the system requirements:

  • My ipod is recognized in windows but not in itunes. I ran the troubleshooter and followed all of the steps to fix it....itunes still does not recognize my ipod.  Anyone know how to fix this?

    My ipod is recognized in windows but not in itunes. It shows up in devices and gives me the ok to eject prompt, so I know that the connection is good. I ran the troubleshooter and did all the recommended fixes.  Hours and hours later, I still have the same problem. I uninstalled itunes and all its folders, restarted the apple device services and changed the drive letter. Checked my security settings and everything else I can think of. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Did you remove all Apple related software including QuickTime, Safari, Software Update utility for Windows, etc using the exact instructions in this Apple support document?
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port and not a USB or similar?  Have you tried different cables to help rule out a faulty or damaged cable? 
    Does it connect to iTunes okay on another PC or Mac?

    Your photo is using legacy processing version (2003 or 2010). Click the lightning bolt up near histogram, or use process drop-down at bottom in dev module (right panel, camera cal section) to use current processing version (2012).

    Is the software on your computer up to date? You may want to try reinstalling it as well...

    Also, try right clicking on the iPod (in My Computer) and go to format. Does anything happen?
