Hi,
We have Basler acA2040-180km CMOS camera and trying to communicate the camera with PCIe-1473R-LX110 via cameralink. We have tried to follow the KnowledgeBase in NI (Ref.1 and 2) to establish the serial connection by the virtual serial port.
However, we modified the shipping example following by Ref. 2 and change the default FPGA from PCIe-1473R to PCIe-1473R-LX110. The project is sucessfully compiled but we cannot detect the camera in MAX. In the step 3 of the solution in Ref.2, we should be able to check if the camera status is OK when select the "Select CLSerNat Systems" in the MAX Tools. The image is shown below and more details in Fig_1
The camera is working fine with other cameralink framegrabber using Pylon 5. However, we just cannot see the camera in the camera status. We are sure the camera power is on and the LabVIEW project of the modified shipping example is running as shown in Fig_2.
Thanks in advance if there is any idea about this issue. We have searched some references, but cannot find similar issues as we have. If we made any mistake, please let us know.
Thanks.
Best.
