Vision Acquisition Software

[tracyl1]

I'm currently running an evaluation version of LabVIEW 17.  I installed a licensed version of the Vision Acquisition Software, but it doesn't seem to be working correctly.  It shows up in the NI License Manager just fine, and when going to uninstall NI software the IMAQdx driver show up as installed.  When I open the palette in LabVIEW no video or IMAQdx options appear.  Also, when I try opening a VI which is designed to use the Vision Acquisition Software I get an error that it's not installed.

I would check the readme for the version of VAS that you installed and check to see if it is compatible with LabVIEW 2017 because I could not find a version of the VAS driver that is available on the web that is compatible with LabVIEW 2017 (yet).

-What version of VAS(Vision Acquisition Software) you installed and What version license you have?

-This is the latest VAS available: http://www.ni.com/download/ni-vision-acquisition-software-january-2017/6606/en/ 

-Look into for more Why is the IMAQ or IMAQdx Function Palette Missing in LabVIEW?: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/A451D3CCBB740716862578FC004DB392

The version of VAS I'm using is the January 2017 version.  I think Jacobson hit the nail on the head.  It doesn't appear that VAS has support for the 2017 version of LabVIEW.  Should I expect support to be coming to this version of LabVIEW in the near future?

Hey Tracy,

Traditionally, hardware support for National Instruments products in LabVIEW comes in the second half of the year.  Can't say for sure when this will happen, but if you do need the support I would work out of 2016 for now and then upgrade when the change happens.
