Matlab not recognizing Allied Vision Technologies Camera using GigE Adaptor

I am trying to use Matlab to communicate with a GigE camera using the GigE adaptor, however the adaptor is not recognizing the camera. Running 'imaqhinfo' lists 'gige' as an InstalledAdaptor, so it seems like the package itself is working. I have followed the tips here and here with no luck. Any ideas?

I am having the exact same issue on a Mac computer with Matlab 2017b:

imaqhwinfo

ans =

struct with fields:

    InstalledAdaptors: {'dcam'  'gige'}
        MATLABVersion: '9.3 (R2017b)'
          ToolboxName: 'Image Acquisition Toolbox'
       ToolboxVersion: '5.3 (R2017b)'

Which looks ok, but then when I ask for gige specific info (i.e. to get a device ID) imaqhwinfo('gige')

ans =

struct with fields:

       AdaptorDllName: '/Users/fradenlab/Documents/MATLAB/SupportPackages/R2017b/toolbox/imaq/supportpackages/gige/adaptor/maci64/mwgigeimaq.dylib'
    AdaptorDllVersion: '5.3 (R2017b)'
          AdaptorName: 'gige'
            DeviceIDs: {1×0 cell}
           DeviceInfo: [1×0 struct]
Nothing :< 
I know the device is connected to my comp via ethernet correctly as calling system_profiler SPUSBDataType shows that the gige device is indeed connected.

You should instaled Vimba software.

Please I have this problem: I have a AVT Marlin F033B and it is connected with Matlab using Vimba software, but I can not capture the images in mode 8, when using 30 and 60 fps. I'm working on Window 7.

I've met this problem recently and solved it then via refreshing "Image Acquisition Tool" adaptor candidates list in MATLAB. MATLAB —— APPs —— Image Acquisition Tool —— Tool —— Refresh specific adaptor (2nd selection)

Good luck.
