I would like to start an imaq image sequence but skip approximately 100 images before beginning storage of the images into a buffer. In addition, I may want to stop aquiring and begin again without ending the sequence. The reason I need to do this is for precise timing of image capture. The camera that the sequence collects images from sends an external trigger to a device which then begins a timed operation. If I had unlimited buffer space, I would not need to skip images, but I can't switch over to a 64-bit system at this time.
It seems to me that the best option would be to only save the images that I need. The imaq version of sequence had a "skip" input that allowed specified images to be skipped, thus saving buffer space. The imaq dx version does not have this. Is there a work-around? Perhaps there is an imaqdx sequence sub-VI that has a "skip" input like the imaq version of sequence or something similar?
