USB Camera not recognized by Imaqtool.

Hello,

I'm using a USB Ximea. I have already installed the Ximea package and I can see my Camera with the XIMEA program. Unfortunatly after I ran Imaqtool on Matlab, the only one device I can see is my Webcam. I add : -GeniCam Interface -GiGe vision Hardware -OS Generic vision Interface -QImaging Hardware -USB Video I don't understand, I think I didn't forget anything.

Thank you for your support.

Thomas Chansard.

Hi Thomas,

I have or had more or less the same problem. At the moment I just found a not really satisfying workaround.

First, I just added the genicam-hardware-support packge to matlab to the existing os generic and NI-adapter. Like that matlab did not find the XIMEA camera at all. Then I removed all interfaces but the genicam interface and suddenly the camera was found by matlab and working as intended. However, as soon as I add another hardware support package the camera dissapears from the imaqtool hardware list.

I contacted XIMEA about this but so far I have no other solution. As far as you just need the XIMEA camera for your program it will work but as soon as you need other hardware interfaces parallel it won't work at the moment, at least for me...

I hope there will be a better solution soon...

You may have to register a third party adapter:

Try that and browse to the camera's DLL.
