How to activate camera attributes in the MAX / LabVIEW

[Marc_V]

Hello,

I have created an icd file for a VieWorks camera. Therefore I used the camera file generator tool of NI. In this tool I can setup camera attributes. After creating the file, I opened the MAX and selected the camera in the IMAQ devices. The attributes I generated where correctly shown. The question now is how to activate the attributes. For instance I created an attribute to activate / deactivate the FAN. When I select the attribute in the MAX and set the value to ON, nothing happens.

This also fails when I use the SetCameraAttributes.vi in labview. I use LV2009 and IMAQ 4.6.1

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Regards,

Hello,

Just check in MAX that the "Serial Enable" is selected. It seems that the serial command is not send to your camera.

Hope this helps
