Image capture using twain and Logitech camera

No really, it is related to APEX.

Situation:

APEX 3.0.1 using a Logitech camera to take pictures and upload them into an application. Desktop icon (for the user) launches a bat file with a call to Java using JTwain.jar. Works great.

However, upgrading the camera to a newer Logitech device (Pro 9000, and the dropping of explicit support from Logitech with twain a while back), a "Select source" dialog window appears, with nothing in the source list (so basically a blank text box with only the Cancel button active). Using a properties file works for other parameters (jdbc data source, logging, file name for the image), but kind of drawing a blank on the data source for the camera.

I'm sure a default data source can be set in the properties file, or within a ds file in system\twain_32, can be set/configured so as to suppress the dialog window, and I would guess, also tell the camera what/where the data source is. Has anyone used a newer Logitech camera with twain inside APEX and gotten around this problem? Thanks.
