We're trying to make a Camera File with the Camera File Generator (v3.0.1). Our camera is sending a stream of 16 bit pixels to a 1433 in base mode using 2 taps.
We're getting an "Acquisition Timeout. Not all of the incoming data was captured within the Acquisition timeout. …" error. The camera takes roughly 4ms to send the image. The pixel clock is under the maximum data rate for a 1433 (80 MHz, less than the max of 85 MHz).
An additional oddity is that we selected 16 bits in the Camera Settings window, but when we come back to the Camera Settings window, the image type is 8 bits again. Every time we make this change, the program ignores it.
If we unplug the camera from the board, it instead has the error, "Cannot detect valid timing signals. …" That suggests that it is getting valid timing signals when it IS plugged in.

Hi LukeASomers.
I have some clarifying questions for you:
If you could provide screenshots of the errors you are seeing, that would be good too.
Thanks!
