Snap Image with IMAQ

Hi,

 

For some reason, I am unable to talk to the camera I have setup from LabVIEW.

 

If I go to NI-MAX, I can see all of the features of the camera and can directly grab/snap images, but when I use the snap example vi, I get an error: Error -1074397163 occurred at IMAQ Init.vi

 

I took the LabVIEW example snap VI under IMAQdx and just replaced the functions with normal IMAQ VIs, dont know what went wrong. 

 

I need to snap images and save them as BMP files, any help?  

 

Side question:

How do I trigger the camera to snap every X nanoseconds and save the image with a certain filename (e.g. pic1.bmp, pic2.bmp, pic3.bmp, etc.)?  A for loop would be useful for the filename part I guess, but a while loop may be better for minimizing delays when triggering the camera for a time-sensitive matter...?

 

I apologize for these basic questions, I only have experience using LabVIEW for pure coding purposes.
