Reading Aribitrary Register From an MCT8316AV Using NI USB-8452 in C#

[marcusenderskog]

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on a project where I need to read an arbitrary register from an MCT8316AV motor driver (specifically to verify that the driver's I2C interface is operational). I’m using the NI USB-8452 device along with the ni845x.dll in C#, for which I have an auto-generated wrapper class created using CppSharp.

How would I go about reading a register, for example, the CONST_POWER register (0x90)?

I’ve attached the datasheet for the motor driver for reference.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Best regards,
Marcus

What have you tried? have you looked at the C examples to understand how to use the functions to communicate with a device?
