How to write program for step motor with NI9512 controller

[Facer33]

Hello to all!

I´m new here in the forum and also a beginner in Labview. I have the stepmotor Powerpac N33HRHJ - LEK- M2- 00 which is connected to the controller NI 9512. I already can control the motor by using the "test mode" in labview but now I want to need to write a simple program for telling the engine something like: 30 sec at 1000 1/s and accelerate smooth. Does anyone have some experience with this?

The next problem is that the step motor is bucking a lot but the description of the controller says that it has an algorithm for a smooth movement. How can I get this- any tricks?

You would help me a lot by giving me some hint or useful links! Thanks in advance!
