Can you use multiple PCIe-1473 frame grabbers in a host computer PCIe bus

[davida2000]

We would like to control multiple cameras from a single computer. Is it possible to install, control, and acquire images from multiple PCIe-1473 cards in a single computer?

We are controlling PCIe1473 and PCIe1477 in the same computer when we are developing.

You should have no problem.

They will show as RIO0 and RIO1 in your software.

Amit,

Both PCIe-1473 frame grabbers show up in NI MAX as RIO0 and RIO1. However, we are unable to do the following:

1. Start a second instance of the LabVIEW VI required in order to control and Acquire images from two cameras.

2. Use TestStand to change VI front panel controls in order to control the device 

I was able to find information on the internet about how to create multiple instances of LabVIEW VIs if you create executables. The problem is that it is not clear how to use a LabVIEW executable in TestStand.
