Overview
The example demonstrates how to acquire a number of frames with NI-IMAQ and save them to disk.
Description
This example uses the low level asynchronous acquisition of NI-IMAQ to acquire frames to preallocated buffers.
If activated the acquisition can be triggered so a frame is only acquired when a trigger occurs. The 'IMAQ Occurrence Config' function can generate a occurrence when the acquisition starts or stops, so the application can check whether the asynchronous operation has finished.
Requirements
Software
- LabVIEW 2012 Base Development System (or compatible)
- Vision Development Module 2012 (or compatible)
- NI-IMAQ 4.7 (or compatible)
Hardware
- NI-IMAQ compatible hardware
Steps to Implement or Execute Code
- Select a path to save the frames to
- Configure the acquisition settings
- Run the VI
