Add Calibration Information

If you want to attach the calibration information of the current setup to each image you acquire, use the IMAQ Set Calibration Info VI. This VI takes in a source image containing the calibration information and a destination image that you want to calibrate. The output image is your inspection image with the calibration information attached to it. Refer to the Calibrating Images section for detailed information about calibration.

Note  Because calibration information is part of the image, it is propagated throughout the processing and analysis of the image. Functions that modify the image size—such as geometrical transforms—void the calibration information. Use the IMAQ Write Image and Vision Info File 2 instance of the IMAQ Write File 2 VI to save the image and all of the attached calibration information to a file.
