Does anyone know how to program a Data Translation Quick Capture frame
grabber board?
I'm a beginning MAC programmer teaching myself the system. I have been
playing around with trying to program the board for about a year with no
success. The manual is all but useless. Support from the company is
worse. I know the board works, other application programs can access it.
I just haven't figured out to do the same. What I'm looking for is some
simple C code (THINK C preferably), that acquires a black and white image
and then displays it continually in a window. I have PASCAL code from
Wayne Rasband's "Image" program, but this is just too complex for me to
understand now. I'd like something that is very simplistic and linear, just
to get the concepts down.
I have the Data Translation programmer's development kit, A THINK C
(version 4) complier, a MAC IIcx with 8 megs, and a Sony camera. At this
point I've been able to get the THINK C to compile the supplied DT's demo
code, which only displays messages that the board is functioning. I need
lots of help with sending the image to a display window.
