Vision Assistant capture size 520X458

[hspec]

I am using Vision assistant with a NI PCI-1409 capture card. When I view a snapshot or continuous video the resolution displayed is only 520X458, but the source S/B 640X480. The top and left side of the image is being cut off. When I load a Labview example to snap a single image, I get 640X480 resolution. Does anyone know how I can get Vision Assistant to display the full image?

Thanks,

It states that there is a bug in Vision Assistant 7.1. that is fixed in Vision Assitant 7.1.1.
If you are using VA 7.1, you will need to get an upgrade to 7.1.1, although I couldn't find it anywhere in the "update and patches" download page. I'm using VA 7.1 also, and am having the same problem. I emailed my local NI rep last week, but haven't heard a word from him. You know what they say about "service after the sale"!
I hope this helps you.

Thanks for all the help. I solved the problem by downloading and installing the latest version of NI-IMAQ (Version 3.1)
