Deploying IMAQ AVI OpenIMAQ AVI Open loaded with errors on the target and was closed.

[VirtualWorld]

Hello

I am trying to open up example of Grab and Save to AVI and/or View AVI (IMAQ or IMAQdx) available here in my Smart Camera 1742. I am getting follwing error while deploying.

LabVIEW:  Failed to load shared library nivissvc.*:LV_AviMovieOpen:C. Ensure that the library is present on the RT target. Use MAX to install NI software or FTP to transfer custom libraries to the RT target.
Deployment completed with errors

I am using LabVIEW 2010, LabVIEW RT 10, LabVIEW Vision 10 in my Computer and LabVIEW RT 10, LabVIEW Vision 10.0.1.3.0 on my Smart Camera.

Also While executing example codes of HL Grab or LL Triggered Ring (NI 17xx Series) VI

Error 1074397150 occured at IMAQ Grab Acquire.vi:1  

Possible reason(s):

NI IMAQ: A timeout error occured while waiting for the specified event. If waiting for an image, verify that all video data is acquired within the timout period. If waiting for a signal, verify that the signal assertion occurs within the timeout period.

I checked other resources saying loose cable could be a reason, seems OK to me

Hope will get some help from Dis Forum.....Thanks in advance.

Hi VirtualWorld,

Based on the software that you have listed, it sounds like you may not have installed the IMAQ RT software on the Smart Camera. On the Smart Camera you need to have LabVIEW RT, Vision RT, IMAQ RT, and IMAQ Server installed. Here is a link to the manual that explains the software installation process.

Are you able to run any of the examples and acquire with the smart camera?

Hi VirtualWorld,

The first error using the AVI functions provided by Vision Development module are failing because those functions are only supported when the code is running on Windows (because AVI is primarilly aa Microsoft format and uses Windows APIs to generate the files). If you wanted to save images acquired from the smart camera to an AVI, you could transfer them to the host PC first and then save them from there. In addition, the Smart Camera itself does not have very much disk space available and is not designed for logging images/video to its internal storage, so you would likely need to do this anyway.

As for your second issue, you received a timeout error when running the "triggered ring" example. This is likely due to not receving a trigger signal. Can you verify how you are generating triggers to the Smart Camera?
