IDFixed Issue
590374

The IMAQ FPGA Local Threshold VI needs to operate at 30 MHz on IC-317x targets when using the Niblack method. If operated above 30 MHz, it results in a distorted image.

FlexRIO devices can operate at default clock rates for the IMAQ FPGA Local Threshold VI, but their maximum throughput is not optimized.

Note: This patch corrects these issues in LabVIEW 2014 and later. Vision Assistant users will require additional files to correct this problem for FPGA code generation. Refer to the table below for operating frequencies for supported targets.

The following list describes issues related to NI Vision Development Module that are fixed in a separate update, NI Vision Common Resources 2016 f1. If you have a CAR ID, you can search this list to validate that the issue has been fixed. This is not an exhaustive list of issues fixed in the current version of NI Vision Development Module.
