Hi,
We have been using AVT cameras for a long time with IMAQdx.
However now I am using a AVT Mako G131C, and it is not discovered by NI MAX.
Things I've done :
- Plugged in a Adlink PCIe-GIE64+(G) 4-port NIC with PoE in the PC.
- Plugged in the camera in one of the 4 sockets
- Installed AVT Vimba (just viewer, not driver).
- Vimba discovered the camera immediately. Using Vimba, I could give the camera a fixed IP (192.168.2.1)
- I've update the corresponding network interface on the PC with the NI Vision driver and gave it a fixed IP (192.168.2.2).
- However Max is not able to detect the camera. Vimba however can always discover the camera. Also pinging works.
- Tried toggling on/off some protocols on the NIC, reverting back to the windows-driver but this does not help.
We have worked in the past many times with GigE and Firewire (B) cameras from AVt and never had a problem.
This is the first time that I am working with PoE, but as the camera is starting and is working okay under the VIMBA-application,
I presume the PoE cannot be the cause.
Any ideas?
Thx.
