I want to display the time when a LabVIEW frontpanel becomes inactive (not the top window).
Basically, we're acquire image data from a non-NI camera. The simplest way is to use the application that came with the camera, rather than try, with my measle knowledge, to build a driver in LabVIEW. However, we need to correlate other temperature data with image frames.
To do this we'll time stamp all temperature data when acquired and also mark the time when images begin to be acquired.
A simple way to do this, if it is possible, is to begin taking temperature data, having allready set up the camera. When I push the record button on the screen of the camera software, the LabVIEW front panel will become inact
ive (not on top) and I can log that time. (or log a 1 or maybe not even start logging data until the front panel is inactive?) All the frames are stamped with a time representing the time from start.
Question: Does anyone know how to trigger a command from when the front panel is no longer the active window in LabVIEW 6i??
Any ideas are greatly appreciated!
