New LabVIEW Sub VI for Device Open and Restore

I am currently taking a look at LabVIEW - in particular how to generate a simple, reusable sub VI that can open a device.

The filename is used to load a video capture device, or if a new device has been opened, to save it.

If a filename is not provided, or no video capture device could be restored from the file, then the device selection dialog that ships with IC Imaging Control is shown.

The following image shows the usage in the complete VI:

Please download "RestoreDevice.vi":  RestoreDevice.zip [17.09 KB]

You should copy it into the "user.lib" directory of your LabVIEW installation. It is compatible with LabVIEW 7.0 and higher.
