image acquisition in lab view with NI frame grabber pci 1424

I have KOdak KLI-14403 camera and i have connected it with the NI frame grabber PCI-1424 for image acquisition.I have taken images of a moving platform but the image acquisition speed is slow,for this i have used the Measurement and Automation tool.

And now i want to acquire images from the same camera using the same frame grabber in labview.Kindly help me how i can do this .I have a block diagram of this scenario that i am attaching with my mail.it is a Simple LabVIEW Diagram that Acquires and Displays an Image.

 

Best Regards,

aasma.

Just the snap vi is not going to work. You have to initialize the acquisition port by using init.vi and close vi. Like this

If you want the acquisition to be continous then use a while loop. Check your interface name from max. Close max when you run labview.

Sounds like you don't have the driver installed.  With LabVIEW 7.0, you'll want to install IMAQ 3.5.1 (according to this article)

 

You can download IMAQ 3.5.1 from this link.

 

Hope this helps!
