Documentation
NI Vision Acquisition Software allows you to acquire, display, and save images; control the digital I/O on IEEE 1394 hardware; and configure your driver software and hardware.
The readme.html file for each NI Vision Acquisition Software driver is installed to the following default locations, where <National Instruments> is the location to which National Instruments software is installed.

• NI-IMAQ—<National Instruments>NI-IMAQDocs eadme.html

• NI-IMAQdx—<National Instruments>NI-IMAQdxDocs eadme.html

• NI-IMAQ I/O—<National Instruments>NI-IMAQ IODocs eadme.html
  

New Features
This release of Vision Acquisition Software includes the following new features:
NI-IMAQ 4.1
NI-IMAQ is the National Instruments driver software for NI image acquisition devices. Using NI-IMAQ, you can program your image acquisition device to acquire images.

• Support for NI 1744, NI 1762, and NI 1764 smart cameras

• Support for LabVIEW 8.6
  

NI-IMAQdx 3.2
NI-IMAQdx is the National Instruments driver software for IEEE 1394 and GigE Vision cameras. NI-IMAQdx gives you the ability to use IEEE 1394 and GigE Vision industrial digital video cameras to acquire images.

• Support for LabVIEW 8.6

• Support for GenICam Version 1.1

• New GigE Vision Real-Time (RT) driver. The high performance driver has been ported to the LabVIEW Real-Time Module and provides support for the NI 8231 and NI 8234 GigE adapters. Visit ni.com/info and enter rdcygv for information about configuring your real-time system for GigE Vision cameras

• Update to the NI CVS-1450 Series Compact Vision System BIOS to support the Reliance file system and auto-IP configuration. The Reliance file system adds fault tolerant support to the flash memory on NI CVS-1450 devices. Auto-IP configuration allows remote targets to acquire a link local address in the absence of a DHCP server

• Update to the universal video driver to expand the video output support for RT targets. Tested RT targets now include the NI 8196/8106/8176/8186 PXI controllers, NI 8105/8130 PXIe controllers, NI CVS-1450 Series Compact Vision Systems, and RT desktops
  

NI-IMAQ I/O 2.2
NI-IMAQ I/O is the National Instruments I/O device driver software for controlling the digital I/O on IEEE 1394 hardware.

• Support for LabVIEW 8.6
  

Upgrade Considerations for Vision Acquisition Software Customers
Locations for camera files and examples have changed. Refer to the readme.html file for each NI Vision Acquisition Software driver, installed to the following default locations, for information on these changes.

• NI-IMAQ—<National Instruments>NI-IMAQDocs eadme.html

• NI-IMAQdx—<National Instruments>NI-IMAQdxDocs eadme.html

• NI-IMAQ I/O—<National Instruments>NI-IMAQ IODocs eadme.html
  

Upgrade Considerations for NI-IMAQ Customers
Note: If you have installed a prior version of NI-IMAQ on a Windows Vista system, uninstall the old version before installing NI-IMAQ software.
Region of Interest (ROI) and scaling settings in NI-IMAQ 2.x persist if you call Snap, Grab Setup, or Sequence a second time. In NI-IMAQ 3.0 or later, subsequent function calls change the ROI and scaling values to the defaults, as they were defined in MAX, unless you pass in new values for each.

Upgrade Considerations for NI-IMAQ for IEEE 1394 Cameras Customers
NI-IMAQdx introduces a new, though similar, application programming interface (API) for acquiring images from GigE Vision and IEEE 1394 cameras. National Instruments recommends that you use the NI-IMAQdx API for future applications. The following information is important to those upgrading to NI-IMAQdx from NI-IMAQ for IEEE 1394 Cameras.
Note: If you have installed a prior version of NI-IMAQ for IEEE 1394 Cameras on a Windows Vista system, uninstall the old version before installing the NI-IMAQdx.
Existing Applications Will Continue to Work
NI-IMAQ for IEEE 1394 Cameras 2.0.5 files will be installed on the target machine. Existing compiled applications will continue to call into this driver and will run exactly as they did in NI-IMAQ for IEEE 1394 Cameras 2.0.x. This is also true for existing applications run from the development environment including National Instruments LabVIEW, LabWindows™/CVI™, Microsoft Visual Basic, and Visual C.

Upgrade Considerations for NI-IMAQ I/O Customers
The following sections provide specific information about updating your software for use with your NI-IMAQ I/O device. NI-IMAQ I/O devices include the NI CVS-1450 Series compact vision system, the NI PCI-8254R, and the NI PCIe-8255R.
Note: If you have installed a prior version of NI-IMAQ I/O on a Windows Vista system, uninstall the old version before installing the NI-IMAQ I/O software.
NI Vision Builder AI
If you are using Vision Builder AI with your CVS-1450 device, you must have Vision Builder AI 2.5 or later installed. If you have Vision Builder AI 2.0 installed, go to ni.com/support, and click the Drivers and Updates link to find and install the latest update. Without this support, you cannot configure the CVS-1450 device. Refer to the Vision Builder AI readme.html file for additional information about this update.
Upgrading NI-IMAQ I/O Host VIs for Use with LabVIEW 8.x
A host VI is a VI that communicates with an FPGA VI to control an FPGA target. A host VI can run on a Windows computer or on a real-time (RT) target. If you previously used LabVIEW 7.x to program your NI-IMAQ I/O device and you upgrade to LabVIEW 8.x, host VIs that use the digital I/O functionality of the NI-IMAQ I/O device may have a broken Run arrow when you open the VIs in LabVIEW 8.x.
Complete the following steps to correct the broken Run arrow:

• In LabVIEW 8.x, select Tools»Update 7.X VIs using NI-IMAQ I/O in the Getting Started window or in the Project Explorer window of an open project.

• Click Add to add the host VIs that you want to upgrade to the VIs list.

• Choose the location to save the VIs.

• Click Continue. The Update 7.X VIs using NI-IMAQ I/O window will automatically close when the update is complete.
  

Upgrading FPGA VIs for Use with LabVIEW 8.x
An FPGA VI is a VI that runs on an FPGA target. If you created FPGA VIs using LabVIEW 7.x and the LabVIEW FPGA Module 1.x, you can update the VIs for use with LabVIEW 8.x and the LabVIEW FPGA Module 8.x. Refer to Upgrading FPGA VIs, Host VIs, and Embedded Projects from LabVIEW FPGA Module 1.x to 8.2 in the LabVIEW Help for more information about upgrading FPGA VIs to LabVIEW 8.x.
After you have updated the software on your host computer, you must also update the software on your RT target. Refer to the Configuring NI-IMAQdx for the LabVIEW Real-Time Module section for information about updating software on your RT target.

Upgrade Considerations for RT Desktop
If you upgrade an RT desktop formatted with a LabVIEW Real-Time 8.2.1 boot disk to LabVIEW Real-Time 8.6, and install any NI Vision Acquisition Software 8.6 components to the RT desktop, the RT desktop fails to complete the boot-up process. The RT desktop will hang before the Welcome to LabVIEW 8.6 message. To fix the hang, format the RT desktop with a LabVIEW Real-Time 8.6 utility USB drive. Install LabVIEW Real-Time 8.6 and NI Vision Acquisition Software 8.6.
Refer to the Using Desktop PCs as RT Targets with the LabVIEW Real-Time Module document for information about configuring a desktop PC as an RT target. This document installs with the LabVIEW Real-Time module and you can find it on ni.com/manuals.

Minimum System Requirements
The development computer must meet the following requirements to run NI Vision Acquisition Software:

• Pentium 4 1 GHz or equivalent processor

• 512 MB RAM

Installing the Universal GigE Vision Driver
NI-IMAQdx will work with any standard gigabit Ethernet NIC. To use NI-IMAQdx with a standard gigabit Ethernet NIC, complete the following steps:

• Install the NIC and any related drivers. Refer to the NIC device documentation for installation instructions.

• Enable jumbo frames (frame packet size is greater than 1,500 bytes) on your NIC.
  Note: The procedure for enabling jumbo frames on your NIC may vary by manufacturer. Refer to the NIC device documentation for more information about enabling jumbo frames.

• Right-click the NIC in the Device Manager, and select Properties.

• Click the Advanced tab, and Jumbo Frames will appear in the Property list if supported by your NIC.

• Select the largest frame size available and click OK.
  

• Disable the Windows Firewall or any additional third party firewalls on the port. Windows Firewall can be disabled on individual ports from the Advanced tab of the Windows Firewall applet.
