Question about Imaq 1394 Get image.vi

[jenlin197]

Hi,

I am using Labview for imaging. There is an error code in Imaq 1394 Get image.vi, which is  BFF60428. I checked it is the error -107436120,not an image. Can you help me with this porblem? I did not change anything in the labview setting. The only thing changed is the Windows updated.

Thanks,

Jenn

Hi,

Maybe this problem occurs because of an incorrect call of the IMAQ Create VI. You will find the solution you need on this KB.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for your reply. I just found out the problem is related to the VISA write, which give me a timeout error. I did not change anything in the software. We just upgraded the windows and reboot the PC. it seemed reboot sometime will cause this problem.

Attached is the sub vi which has the problem.

That would indicate a problem communicating with your device.  I would start by verifying that you are able to send and receive data to the device through Hyper Terminal or the Basic Serial Write and Read VI found through the Example Finder.  Otherwise, check the settings you have configured in your program and make sure the commands you are sending are correct.

Thank you very much! I have been working on this code for a while. I can communicate with the device and get the image without problem with my first image. However, the program is setting to get multiple images. The timeout error come out at the image save sub vi of the first image. After the error, I could not get the second image any more because the shutter is not moving. What caused the time out problem?

Thanks,

I'm having a hard time following the code since I cannot see the subVIs.  Would you be able to just post your code with the subVIs included?
