Check Focus Of An Image With Standard LABVIEW Functions

Hi Jimmy01,

The advice BruceAmmons is giving is spot on.  But to answer your question from above, you will not be able to use the IMAQ functions in an executable that you distribute to clients without purchasing a vision run-time engine license.  This is separate from the LabVIEW run-time engine.  Just to reiterate, although the IMAQ drivers are free, putting them in an executable will require purchasing that license.  The price of this license is listed here as $423: http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/207700

If this disqualifies use of the IMAQ drivers, it seems like the advice still holds true, but you will need to find a way to convert the image to an array yourself since you won't be able to use the IMAQ Image to Array function in your executable.

Actually, I am pretty sure you can use IMAQ ImageToArray without an IMAQ license.  It is part of the base package.

Another note is that the Vision Run-time license includes the Vision Acquisition license, but not the other way around.

Nicely done.
