Karissap Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 You must install the latest NI-IMAQ driver that is compatible with LabVIEW v8.2 to use NI-IMAQ for USB If you don't have the NI-IMAQ driver installed you can use you LabVIEW instrument drivers cd or you can download it from here Quote Link to comment

I'm pretty sure you've got the wrong driver - try http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/niepd_web_display.display_epd4?p_guid=ED6942DF78E34659E034080020E74861&p_node=DZ52000&p_source=external' target="_blank">this one instead - it's free.

That's the first driver that I downloaded. An error appears when I try to install it :-( Quote Link to comment
jg69 Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 Hi, although the NI-IMAQ for USB camera driver itself is free, you need the NI-Vision package (Version 7.1 or higher) for it to work. That package is NOT free, you have to buy it from NI in order to work. Jens Quote Link to comment

That's not quite true: there are a handful of really basic VIs that come with LabVIEW (look under the "Vision and Motion" palette. That said, they are very basic, and if you want to do anything more, then jg69 is right: the NI-Vision toolkit is the way to go. Quote Link to comment
jg69 Posted June 24, 2007 Report Share Posted June 24, 2007 Perhaps I should restate my first answer: You cannot install the NI-USB camera driver without an already installed NI-Vision toolkit. See picture: http://forums.lavag.org/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=6204 BTW, that's also stated on NI-site: ZITAT System Requirements include:LabVIEW 7.0 or higher with NI Vision 7.1 or higher for the USB LabVIEW support. That toolkit has to be bought from NI, if you want to use it for longer than the trial period. Sorry, Ich, that driver will not work without investing money. Jens Quote Link to comment

Well there you go - I stand corrected. I thought you could install the USB toolkit and perform some basic functions, but apparently not Quote Link to comment

Just copy it and paste it in to Addon folder of vilib. It works. Quote Link to comment
