For some reason, NI-IMAQ 4.6.4 driver is not available for download from NI's website. The driver is automatically installed with the Image Acquisition Toolbox Support Package for National Instruments® Frame Grabbers.
But installing the support package requires MATLAB to be installed on the machine.
The two options for installing the NI-IMAQ 4.6.4 driver on machines that do not have MATLAB installed are:
Option 1:
NI-IMAQ driver/library is included with the "NI Vision Acquisition Software" package, which can be downloaded from NI's website. NI-IMAQ 4.6.4 version is included with a "NI Vision Acquisition Software" version from 2012.
It can be downloaded from the below link:
Option 2:
Another way to get the setup program for the vendor driver is to launch MATLAB Add-On Explorer from a computer with an installed MATLAB.
Step 1: Click on Add-Ons button and select Get Hardware Support Packages.
Step 2: On Select and action page choose the Download from Internet option.
Step 3: Select the NI Frame Grabbers support package and download the Image Acquisition Toolbox Support Package for National Instruments Frame Grabbers.
Step 4: After the download is complete the setup program will be in the SupportPackages folder, for example:
C:\Users\username\Downloads\MathWorks\SupportPackages\R2017a\downloads
You can then install the NI driver from there.
