Controlling a dc motor (with esc) using Agilent power supply

Hi I’m currently using labview with the linx add on to control my dc motor with an esc.  This is experimentally inconvenient and I’d like to remove the arduino from the setup.  I have an Agilent power supply which I can use to send a PWM signal to the motor.  The problem is I do not know how to do that in labview.  Ideally, I’d like to set the duty cycle.  I would appreciate any help.

Do you mean to say replace "Arduino + ESC" with an Agilent power supply?

 

If not, you need a way to control the PWM signal sent to the ESC, no, power supplies are not meant to reliably generate PWM signals to control the ESC.

 

What model of Agilent power supply?
