I am having trouble displaying camera feed to the dashboard. I am using the default mecanum labview code with a USB camera plugged into the roboRIO. I’ve checked to make sure my camera is recognized when connected to the robioRIO over USB. However i’m still not able to see the camera feed from my dashboard. When I deploy the code to the roboRIO I get these error messages: ERROR-1074360311 occured at IMAQdx Open Camera.vi and NI-IMAQdx: (Hex0xBFF69009) Camera not found . I’ve also tried enabling vision on the Robot Main VI front Panel.
In the Vision VI, it lets you specify the camera address and lets you choose between a name for an Axis camera and a name for a USB camera. What name is that code selecting? By default, it was looking for the first USB camera.

By camera address do you mean what port it is physically plugged into on the roboRIO? In other words, does the the USB camera have to be plugged into a certain USB port on the roboRIO? I believe in my code the name for the camera is just “Camera”. I don’t have access to check right now, but i believe when connected to the roboRIO over USB it doesn’t list the USB camera’s name as “Camera”. Here is a screenshot of the code I am using.
Rather than setting an IP address for your camera, since it is usb, write “USB 0”. After that, deploy the code but check the “Enable Vision” box on the front panel of the Main.vi. From there, go to the dashboard and select what type of camera you are using, for us, we are using a logitec USB camera set for USB 0. On the dashboard, this would be “USB Camera HW”.
