hello,
i want to run an epos2 24/5 positioning controller from maxon motor over labview. i already have the epos toolpalette in labview but can't find any programming examples or explanations. does anyone have experience and could send me a vi example?
i want to program the velocity mode with analog set value over labview, as it is done in the epos studio software. (the velocity is constant) this is as i plan to run the epos over can later, connected to an NImyRIO which will be the master. the epos has to be disconnected from the computer then, and i need to write additional can commands, so that i can't use the epos studio software i think. for this i have another couple of questions , but first i want to start with running the epos with labview.
i found a picture where i can see how to arrange the different vis. (attachments) but i don't know how to assign the inputs:
how to assign the can connection?
how to set the analogue velocity input? which unit does it have when i set a value?
are there any other important remarks?
and the can initialization confuses me:
when i run the epos over the usb connection and the epos studio software i don't use can do i? so i don't understand why it is used in labview. is there a way to run the epos over labview without can? other motor controllers are run in labview without can..
thanks for your help.
