Twain driver problem

Hi

 

I am an absolute beginner with Imagej so please bear with me.

 

I have a camera that has TWAIN drivers. I have installed the plugin as per
the instructions at http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/plugins/twain.html

 

As per:

1.            Download Twain_6.class to the plugins folder.

2.            Download the Morena framework for Windows from
http://www.gnome.sk/ and extract the files to a temporary folder.

3.            Copy morena.jar, morena_windows.jar and morena_license.jar to
the ImageJ\jre\lib\ext folder.

4.            Restart ImageJ.

If I create a shortcut it starts fine and the TWAIN interface comes up.

 

What I would like to do is to do timelapse. I got some script:

 

dir=getDirectory("Images path");

Dialog.create("Timelapse");

Dialog.addNumber("Time beetween lapses", 1.0);

Dialog.addNumber("Number of lapses", 2);

Dialog.show();

delay=Dialog.getNumber();

nb=Dialog.getNumber();

i=1;

while(i<=nb){ tps1=getTime();

run("Twain 6", "default");

//run("Lena (47K)");

rename("image"+i);

name=getTitle();

run("Save", "save="+dir+name+".tif");

close(); tps2=getTime();

i++;

wait((1000*delay)-(tps2-tps1));

//write(""+(tps2-tps1));

}

 

When I run this, it starts fine, asks for a directory to put the images,
then opens a small window asking for the number of images and the time in
between on pressing OK it gets to the line run("Twain 6", "default"); "Twain
6 command unknown".

 

I have no idea why and any pointers would be massively appreciated.
