Invalid image type error

[BoilerUp81]

Hey everyone,

I just came across the following error while programming using the IMAQ vision module:

Error -1074396080 occurred at IMAQ User Lookup  Invalid image type

The goal of my program is to take the image aquired from the camera, save the image, and allow for the image to be modified. However, the program currently produces this output below. Basically, first image (witht the gray and black lines) is the orginal image, and the second image which should allow for modifications does not show. Thanks in advance for any feedback!

This error means that the given image type is not supported by IMAQ User Lookup (U16 in your case). If you using VDM 2009, then try to change image type to I16 instead of U16. Or, if you using Vision 2010 try to use IMAQ User Lookup 2 - then U16 type should be OK.

Thank you so much for the help! I simply used an image cast to convert the U16 to the I16 format for the BCGlookup.vi
