Hi Bob,
When you say you "disabled the native driver" are you talking about the camera drivers? And was it only after you disabled them that the enumerator function listed more attributes than the ICD file originally listed?
No. When I loaded the FLIR software, which had its own way of listing all the Attributes of their Camera, I could use their software and acquire Images, but didn't have the ability to synchronize the camera images with the rest of the setup being controlled by LabVIEW (like the digital pulse generators that timed everything). In order to get IMAQdx to recognize the Camera, however, I had to (and I forget exactly what the steps were) "disable" their Driver (which was something of a pain, because it required Admin access, and I was working in an "Only Special People get Admin Access, but if you jump through enough hoops, we will allow you to do this with additional restrictions").
Right now, I'm talking about a "nice" WebCam that works just fine with IMAQdx. However, even for such a device, there is a "disconnect" between what "Enumerate Camera Attributes" (I think that's what it is called) says and what is listed (by LabVIEW when it detects the Camera and sets up the ICD) in the .icd file. No idea why this is.
Something that did occur to me, however -- when you look at your ICD file, do you see any attributes that "look like Gain" (I don't know what other word would be used, but compare your ICD list with the C920 and see if that gives you a clue).
I'll send you a Private Message if I have more "creative" ideas ...
