NI-IMAQdx is missing from Vision and Motion

[vitya]

Dear Members,

I have a image processing project which would be very important for me to finish. However, I do not find NI-IMAQdx option in the Vision and Motion toolbar (I attached a picture about it). I use LabView 2014 (32-bit) and I also installed NI Vision Acquisition Software 18.5 which I thought will solve my problem but it didn't. I also checked the licenses and all of them are activated.

Another problem which I believe is connected to the above mentioned one is that when I want to open a camera with Vision Acquisition, LabView does not find some VI-s on the computer and therefore it's not working. I attached some pictures about it. 

Does anyone has any idea what should I do to make NI-IMAQdx to work? I would really appreciate if someone could help me out. Thanking you in advance yor your time and assistance.

 Best regards,

vitya

Hi Vitya,

The problem is that Vision Acquisition Software (which includes NI-IMAQdx) 18.5 does not have support for LabVIEW 2014. Any VAS release is compatible with the 4 latest major versions of LabVIEW. For 18.5, this means LabVIEW 2018, 2017, 2016, and 2015. You'll need either a newer version of LabVIEW, or an older version of VAS (<=17.5).

Hope this helps,

Katie

Hi Vitya,

For future reference, you can find the compatibility chart here: http://www.ni.com/product-documentation/54038/en/

Also, you can find info about LabVIEW support in the Vision Acquisition Software's readme file
