PID Motor Control Simulation

[kevlenahan11]

Hi,

I am looking to simulate the performance of a DC motor in LabVIEW to predict how it would perform under PID control.

I have the data sheet of the motor but am wondering how to input this information into LabVIEW and achieve actual results?

Thanks in advance.

Hi kev,

to "input this information into LabVIEW" you need to implement all formulas you need using LabVIEW: it's a programming language!

Are you sure you don't want to use Simulink or Dymola (among other software packages) for your task?

Are yo going to have to enter that data manually? Is the data in some sort of format that can be read into LabVIEW (i.e. .csv, .txt .xls etc...?
