PXI 7332, UMI 7772, P70530 Drive LabView example

[kdunn]

I am using the following equipment in a single axis motion control setup.

PXI 7332, UMI 7772, P70530 Drive, NEMA 34 stepper motor, wiithout an endcoder.

I am able to operate the motor sucessfully using the Motion Assistant. I have used the generate code option but having trouble turing that into a simple VI.

Essentially I would like to create a simple VI to control the motor, and send it number of steps and direction information,

Any suggestions for a sample VI that is out there?

Thanks

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

You might try taking a look at some of the example vi's from LabVIEW's Example Finder.  Go to Help » Find Examples... When that window pops ups, double-click Toolkits & Modules in the folder list, then double-click NI Motion Assistant.  I'm guessing the "Straight Line Move.vi" or "Blended Move.vi" would be most helpful to you, but you could read the descriptions of each example listed for a little bit more information about what the examples are doing.
