Receive images from VBAI on CVS at host

[lilalumo]

Hy to all!

I am working with a CVS 1454 in the network. Now I want to develop a little LabVIEW Application which allows me to see the images of the CVS while an  inspection is running.
I tried it with activeX controls, but its not possible to show 2 oder 3 images (even you can connect up to 3 cameras to the cvs...).
In the VBAI applications on the CVS  is always one inspection running, but this inspections work on 1,2 or 3 images and i have to see all of them and their overlays.
Since it is not possible in VisionBuilder on the host-PC to show any other images as the "default" image (think it´s always the last image in process...) i have to develop my own tool.

Can you please help me? Is there a possibilty to acces the frambuffer of the vga-interface? Can I get different images with activeX-controls?

Thank you!

If you target the LabVIEW VI you build to the CVS (assuming you have LabVIEW Real TIme and Vision Development Module installed), you will be able to see the images on your host machine. You would be deploying the execution to the Real time target (CVS) but you will be able to see everything that happens on your application n your host machine.

Jaime, thanks a lot for your reply!


But there is a little problem... in this case there is no possibility to use /add VIs to the cvs. We use tcp/ip with visionRT applications on other systems - your right, thats no problem...

Do you have any idea what I could test/do to see (all) this vbai-images without manipulating the cvs? Maybe someone has a solution with activeX or can see the framebuffer ?!?!
