image capturing with ni1409 and Jai CV-A1

[mohannandigana]

I am using NI IMAQ 2.5 version.
I have done the procedures for interfacing Jai A1 camera with IMAQ 1409.

1. Download and install the camera control utility from the JAI Web site.
2. Launch the JAI A1 control utility, and click Start>>Programs>>CV-A1 Control Tool>>CV-A1 Control Tool.
3. Click the Shutter and Sync Signals button.
4. Set the Pixel Clock Out radio button to On to output the pixel clock.

Configuration Files
1. Copy the JAI CV-A1(1409).icd file into the \Data folder. Go to ftp://ftp.ni.com/support/imaq/camera_support/
camera_files/analog/jai/ to download this camera configuration file.
2. Launch Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).
3. Expand the Devices and Interfaces branch of the tree view.
4. Expand the IMAQ PCI/PXI-1409 branch of the tree view.
5. Right-click Channel 0: RS-170, and select Camera>>JAI>>JAI CV-A1.
6. Click Save.



When we are using the software for JAI A1, Camera control Tool interface(downloaded from JAI web site), the About window and Camera control window shows red color bar at the bottom and Communication window shows status in red color i.e. offline. I have tried to connect the camera control tool with JAI camera using the Communication window by clicking “auto” button. It is showing “no camera found”.

I have tried with both types of wire viz. BNC and NI. But the results are same.

The picture error.jpg shows the different windows those I have opened.
The window “Acquisition Error” arises when I have tried to grab the frame using NI Measurement & automation software. Rests are for Camera Control Tool software for CV-A1.
