 Hi, I hve install labview 2009 and vision development module 2010 and vision acquisition software 2010. But I can find usb camera function in the function pallete. why?

Use IMAQdx functions for getting images from usb cam. Good idea to check acquisition in MAX (you camera should be listed in IMAQdx devices).

Hi, I want to access the NI-IMAQ for USB Cameras VIs from within LabVIEW, select NI Measurements»Vision»IMAQ USB from the Functions palette of your block diagram, as shown in Figure:

but I can't find IMAQ USB in my labview.why?

[Andrey_Dmitriev]

Again, NI-IMAQ for USB Cameras is not a part of VAS/VDM. This toolkit was intended for old LabVIEW/Vision versions. Right now acquisition from usb cameras is supported by IMAQdx:

I have a directShow usb camera,it can't be connected to labview8.6, but can be connected to labview7.1, why?

If i use labview2010, with NI -Imaqdx, can i connect the camera to labview 2010?   thanks!

Hi Andrey,

I am in a similar situation. 

I am also using the IMAQdx functions palette and still the Enumerate Cameras function doesn't list any camera.

Can you please check the thread and see if you have some clues?

Thanks ahead!

Hi, Andrey!
I have installed LabVIEW 2010 and the NI-IMAQdx functions are just the same as the picture shown above.
Now, I have a problem. In old LabVIEW/Vision versions, I can use the IMAQ USB propertypage.vi to access the properties page that is provided by the camera manufactuter, how can do this with the functions in IMAQdx?

Hi,

you have to use the IMAQdx property node, you will be able to find a lot of informations.

Hi~

Could you show me how, please?

Here you can find some informations about the camera and you are able to set attributes.
