Hello,
You have two options to do that:
1) When you generate the code from Tools>>Create LabVIEW VI, after selecting LabVIEW in the first step of the wizard, click Next. The second step of the wizard allows you to choose the source image. By default, Image File is selected. Choose Image Acquisition instead, and the code generated will acquire images using IMAQdx.
2) A better solution is to decouple acquisition from processing by using the Acquisition Express VI located in the Vision Express palette to configure your acquisition, then use the Vision Assistant Express VI in that same palette to do the image processing. You can save your current Vision Assistant script and open it again in the Vision Assistant Express VI you drop. The processing code will be create inside the Express VI.
That method allows you to easily make changes to the Vision algorithm by double clicking on the Express VI. It will open Vision Assistant with the vision algorithm you configured. You can make changes in Vision Assistant and the code will then be updated in the Express VI, allowing seemless back and forth between Vision Assistant and LabVIEW.
The drawback of the first method (Tools>>Create LabVIEW VI...) is that this is a one way to LabVIEW. If you need to make changes, you have to open the Vision Assistant script again and overwrite your VI.
Note that if you need to make changes to the Express VI, you can do so by right clicking on the Express VI on the diagram and choosing "Open Front Panel". The Express VI is converted into a subVI that you can then modify but the link to Vision Assistant is then broken.
Hope this helps.
Christophe
