Hi everybody!
I have connected two cameras to MAX and confirmed that both images can be grabbed.
One is a "Basler scA640-70gc" camera connected by a GigE cable, under "Network Devices" branch.
The other is a "CMS_309I01" camera connected by a USB 2.0 port, directly under the "Devices and Interface" branch.
I want to connect the "Basler scA640-70gc" camera to another 3rd party program .vi.
The problem is that the vi file reads the "CMS" camera instead.
Upon disconnecting the "CMS" camera, an error message as the following occurs.
"Error-1074360311 occured at IMAQdx Open Camera.vi
Possible reasons: NI-IMAQdx: (HEX 0xBFF69009) Camera not found"
The problem seems to be that the Basler camera is under the "Network Devices" branch.
The product manual for the Basler camera states that the camera must be under the "IMAQdx Devices" branch in MAX, but no such branch can be found in MAX. Perhaps the IMAQdx version allows it to be directly under the "Devices and Interfaces" branch and that appears to be the reason why the unwanted CMS camera is read.
How would I be able to connect the Basler camera to the .vi, and not the CMS camera?
I have tried deleting and reinstalling the entire NI softwares, and even formatted and reinstalled the OS.
Currently, I am using a Windows 7 OS, Labview 2015SP1, Visual Acquisition Software (Feb 2016), IMAQdx 15.5.
I would be sincerely grateful for your help.
