How to use 6024E to control motor?

[allendavid]

Hi,everybody

I have a 6024E board. In the laboratory, a motor drives a gear to produce an incremental encoder signal. I plan to design a controller according to this signal and use the 2 analog output of 6024E to control the motor.

Shall I choose DC motor or AC motor? Or both can work? Without control toolkit, can I design the system successfully with LabVIEW 7.0?

Thanks!

Yes, you can control the motor without any motion tookit.

6024E hasn't reading encoder function, but 6601 has.

and as I know, AC servo driver needs "enable, direction and two phase of analog signals", and 6024E can provide too.

that you can control AC servo motor now.

for DC servo driver control, that is simpler than AC servo driver.

Can I directly impose a voltage signal on DC motor?  Any conditioning circuit required?

Yes, You can, the motor's working principle is the same as child's toy of car. or our whiskers cutter.

not any special circuit required, certainly, if you demand a machine, there are stability and well uniformity velocity, the ciruit would be more complex.

And also depends on Input range/rating of your DC motor.
Your hardware can give Voltage output in range of +/- 10V,DC

Of more concern is the limited output drive current of your DAQ card. I believe it is in the range of 10mA, you should verify from the  specifications in the manual You probably cannot drive the motors directly, hence a current amplifier is probably required.

Thanks to all of you. Can I drive a 220V DC motor with amplifier?

[allendavid]

The motor is a brushless DC motor, and it drives a pair of gears. For the purpose of control, how to build the mathematical model?

Thank you!
