Hi,
I have a C++ *.exe file wich is grabbing images with a Matrox
framegrabber. This program ist startet via "system exec" from LabView. I
want to do a kind of time measurement with this program so i need the
exact time when the grabbing of frame starts. At the moment I dont know
how long the *.exe file needs to initialize the framegrabber (something
about 500-1000ms).
My idea is to start a continous grabbing but start saving the images
when another command via LabView will be send to the C++
application. But I don't know how to send this command! It should be
a kind of a "wait until key pressed" controlled by LabView. Maybe a global
bolean or something like that.
I hope somebody can help me!
