imaq vision function reference

[Harmonium]

Hello All,

I am new to Lab Windows/CVI and am using the imaq vision library.

Could anyone tell me where I can find the IMAQ Vision function reference? I have found a function reference manual at Start--> National Instruments --> Vision--> Documentation. But, all the functions described in this document are starting with img******(). I was looking for functions beginning with imaq****().

I am sorry as it might be a stupid question but any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Hello Harmonium,

i think what you search is under Start --> National Instruments --> Vision --> Documentation --> NI-IMAQ IO

In this directory you found the documentation for the imaq**** functions.

C:\Programme\National Instruments\NI-IMAQ IO\Docs 

There are three librarys the NI-IMAQ I/O, NI-IMAQ Librarys and the NI-IMAQdx. If you can please use the NI-IMAQdx library,

because its the newest for doing aquisition. The documentation can be found here

C:\Programme\National Instruments\NI-IMAQdx\Docs

Hi,I am facing problem in importing niimaqdx.dll in visual basic 2008 .all those function which comes under "niimaqdx.functions" are not being refleced.please help.

You suggest using the NI-IMAQdx, because it's the newest version. How do I control whether I'm using NI-IMAQ or NI-IMAQdx?

Hello DukeTom,

you can see it in the name of the functions, if you work with IMAQ or IMAQdx.

There are are two different libraries inside CVI.
