6.4. Grab VIs
6.4.1. Overview: Grab VIs
Grab VIs allow the user to grab images from the camera.
IDT Snap: this VI executes a complete acquisition sequence. It opens the first available
camera, captures an image and closes the camera.
IDT Grab Setup: this VI prepares the camera to acquire images. Use this VI before IDT Grab
Acquire.
IDT Grab: this VI acquires an image. It waits for a new image to be available and then
transforms that image into an IMAQ Image. To abort the acquisition, set the IDT Grab Abort
global variable to TRUE. The image grab is synchronous and the VI exits when the frame has
been grabbed or a time out occurs.
IDT Grab Stop: this VI stops capturing images. Use this VI after IDT Grab.
IDT Grab Abort: this is a global variable. Set this to TRUE to abort the IDT Grab. Note that
after the VI has aborted, this variable is reset to FALSE.
