729043The PCIe-1477 Getting Started example does not work with the  Timing Constrained design pattern for 8-bit images.
729043The PCIe-1477 Getting Started example does not work with the  Timing Constrained design pattern for 8-bit images.
726025Opening a GigE camera using the C API can return error -1074360311: Camera not found.
725422If an error occurs while generating a camera's attribute tree, subsequent attempts to open a session result in error -1074360310, "Camera is already in use," even if the issue is corrected.
723212Image Extended Chunk Data is not recognized by NI-IMAQdx driver.
722145NI-IMAQdx does not properly handle paddingX data correctly.
721996For GigE acquisitions on Windows, LostBufferCount does not get updated properly.
719679Vision Acquisition Express VI support is not installed correctly for LabVIEW 2015, 2016 and 2017.
717200Opening a camera document in LabVIEW NXG automatically selects the first device in the list of available interfaces.
716861In some cases, the NI-IMAQdx driver sends the same command twice to GigE cameras.
714959Vision Acquisition Software vi.lib VIs do not have "separate compiled code from source file" enabled.
714312Automation Technology C5-1280 (GigE camera) hangs MAX when trying to open the camera.
706811Ethernet packet statistics attributes do not get reset on acquisition unconfigure or restart.
656604VNG Bayer algorithm has color noise.
576849NI-IMAQdx acquisition sometimes times out when controller's time base changes due to 1588 Grand Master time change.
425844IMAQdx Snap VI (and maybe others) don't respect error chaining.
717864FPGA Acquisition does not recover correcltly after pixel clock signal is momentarily lost.

 

Vision Acquisition Software 19.5

IDFixed Issue
146715/735219Opening multiple Camera Link sessions in parallel can sometimes cause a crash.
200473When running an executable that uses IMAQ Grab Acquire or IMAQ Copy Acquired Buffer VIs , LabVIEW throws error -1074396155 "NI Vision did not initialize properly."
200875Running 64-bit IMAQ C API examples returns error "The thread has exited with code 0".
197756/742484In some cases, for Camera Link acquisitions IMAQ Extract Buffer will return a FIFO overflow error but not the IMAQdx Extract Buffer.
113679/731394IMAQdx Calculate Missed Frames VI can sometime report incorrect number of images missed
197777/692125In some circumstances, Camera Link boards will not enumerate correctly. Rebooting the computer usually solves the issue.
146514/736855When using the PCIe-1477, Open FPGA Reference VI might return error "Error -61018 occurred at niLvFpga_Open_PCIe-1477.vi:6620001: LabVIEW FPGA: An error occurred downloading the VI to the FPGA device"
741992LL Ring (Dual Port).vi Example with 1430 returns error "The requested image acquisition device is already in use" at IMAQ Init
