The following items are known issues in NI Vision Acquisition Software 19.0 sorted by Category.
ID | Known Issue | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Installation | ||||||
623854 Return | Installing or reinstalling certain drivers, including NI-IMAQdx or Vision-RIO, on top of previous installations on a Linux Real-Time target can put the target in an unreachable state unless you force it into safe mode using the reset button or manually reassociate driver dependencies on the target. To avoid this issue, format the target prior to installing or reinstalling software, or only perform reinstallations using a Recommended Software Set. To learn more about this issue and additional recovery options, visit ni.com/info and enter the Info Code nikalEmbeddedReinstall.
| |||||
684897 Return | In NXG 2.1, upgrading either DAQmx or NI-IMAQdx from 17.5 to 18.0 will create an incompatibility in a shared dependency. As a workaround, if you have both drivers installed make sure to upgrade both drivers.
| |||||
591562 Return | Upgrading and then downgrading the NI-IMAQdx driver might not revert back completely to the correct version. As workaround, manually delete the niimaqdx.dll from System 32 and SysWOW64 after uninstalling the new version and then force reinstall the old one.
| |||||
731388 Return | Vision Acquisition Software's default NI Package Manager installation to ISC-178x target contains unsupported packages. Workaround: Uninstall unecessary packages NI-IMAQ, NI-IMAQ I/O, High Performance GigE driver.
| |||||
727734 Return | Building a LabVIEW installer from the PCIe-1473R example does not auto-select IMAQ I/O runtime as a dependency. As a workaround, turn off the auto-select option and manually select IMAQ I/O Run-Time, or install the runtime seperately on the deployed system.
| |||||
NI-IMAQdx | ||||||
414065 Return | Volume License Manager attempts to check out available NI Vision Development Module licenses before trying NI Vision Acquisition Software licenses.
| |||||
474860 Return | Renaming a camera on some real-time targets may take a long time to complete.
| |||||
682085 Return | AXIS Q1765-LE cameras are not enumerated in NI-MAX on Windows 10 computers. Possible workaround is to use a Windows 7 computer and port over the generated .icd and .iid files (located under C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\NI-IMAQdx\Data) of the camera to the Windows 10 computer.
| |||||
690945 Return | If selecting a camera file in NI-MAX results in an error, there will be no way to switch to a different camera file. As a workaround, either delete the IMAQ .iid file on disk or change the .icd file it points to.
| |||||
714802 Return | In the Triggered Grab example, the Timeout input is overwritten by the default five second timeout of the Grab2.vi. In order to use the Timeout property, wire a -2 as the timeout input of the Grab2.vi
| |||||
708625 Return | Changing the source of a Camera Link camera control line doesn't take effect until the session is closed and reopened.
| |||||
706600 Return | Quickly switching a camera from one NIC to another will sometimes prevent the user from opening a session to the camera.
| |||||
705508 Return | When a GigE camera has a UserDefinedName with a special character ('\"', '*', '/', ':', '<', '>', '?', '\\', '|') in it, the .iid file is not created properly. Removing the character or manually creating the .iid file on disk and pointing to the serial number of the camera can be used as workarounds.
| |||||
699992 Return | When acquiring from the Windows ISC-178x Smart Cameras, it is possible to see a high CPU utilization. This is due to limited CPU resources on the device. Disabling image display should help reduce the utilization.
| |||||
692125 Return | In some circumstances, Camera Link boards will not enumerate correctly. Rebooting the computer usually solves the issue.
| |||||
690944 Return | After renaming a Camera Link board in NI-MAX, you must close and re-open MAX before it will show up again.
| |||||
691432 Return | It is possible in some cases to get a "Camera already in use" error when first opening a session to the a Camera Link board through NI-IMAQdx. To workaround this issue, disable and then re-enable the card in Device Manager.
| |||||
730702 Return | Using sequence on Linux RT ISC-178x can cause a memory leak over time.
| |||||
722200 Return | Plug and Play Event for NI-IMAQdx does not work correctly. As a workaround, use the "IMAQdx Enumerate Cameras.VI" to check if a camera is still detected.
| |||||
NI-IMAQ | ||||||
726080 Return | Stopping/restarting an NI-IMAQ acquisition does not reset the buffer number to 0. As a workaround, unconfigure/reconfigure the acquisition. 18.5
| |||||
NI-IMAQ I/O | ||||||
427019 Return | Only one NI PCIe-1473R framegrabber can use the virtual serial port at a time.
| |||||
733926/197817 Return |
clsernif_ReadSerialPort and clsernif_WriteSerialPort cannot be executed simultaneously with the PCIe-1477. Workaround: Call clsernif_ReadSerialPort and clsernif_WriteSerialPort sequentially
| |||||
Vision Acquisition Express VI | ||||||
657951 Return | Migrating the Vision Acquisition Express VI from LabVIEW to LabVIEW NXG will return a broken VI. As a workaround, after the migration replace the property node that is returned as unavailable with a random number generator to get a unique name.
