Hi All,
I am having a difficult time installing the drivers for a IMAQ PCI-1408 framegrabber board and accessing the IMAQ vi with LV-2013.
The new version of NI Vision do not install the drivers for driver for the PCI-1408, the latest version that does is IMAQ 3.7
as discussed here:
http://forums.ni.com/t5/Machine-Vision/PCI-1408-driver-needed/m-p/989858/highlight/true#M24810
If I install IMAQ 3.7 NI-Max and system control Device Manger both show the card working, but the installer does not install any IMAQA vis into LV2013 vi.lib.
If I then try to install a later version of NI-Vision it will not install until I un-install IMAQ 3.7 and it un-installs the drivers for the board,
but I do then get the vi for IMAQ into vi.lib.
I could then copy these to some safe place, uninstall the new version of IMAQ, re-install IMAQ 3.7 and move the vi.lib/IMAQ back. Would this work or are there software incompatibilities or is there another way to have install vi.lib/IMAQ and also have the PCI-1408 drivers. Should I save the driver files, ie pciimaq.sys and install the PIC-1408 manually.
Very frustrating!
If this is never going to work what is the latest version of LabVIEW that will work with the PCI1408 or is it best to buy a new board?
thanks
Michael
