Pump Drive

[AMalakian]

Hello,

Any suggestion for a pump drive that is work with LabView?

[RavensFan]

No.

Figure out what pump drive does what you need it to do.  Then we can help you figure out how you can get LabVIEW to control it.  It may be through an analog output, or perhaps through serial or ethernet communication.

Ismatec Compact Programmable Digital Drive (ISM901B) is  my option which I am not sure can I control it with LabView or not.

It looks like it has a serial interface and the commands are defined in the user manual. If you have aserial port and are willing to learn the LV part....

It is doable.

Well.  The next step is to read the manual!  (Though I find it kind of hard to read with multiple languages blended together side by side.)

Jump to page 34.  You'll see it talks about an RS-232 interface and the series of commands to control it.

Now you have the answer.

EDIT:

Look at page 42 and they say they have LabVIEW drivers you can download from their website.  Hopefully they are good quality and not the ones you typically see coming from manufacturers.  But at least it gives you a start.

2nd Edit:

Good luck with the drivers.  I downloaded them.  I'll assume they actually work, but they do several things that I consider wrong.  Stacked Sequence Structures, unnecessary local variables, and the "Bytes at Port".   If I had to use this, I'd be rewriting it from scratch.

Thanks Ben

It reads like an interlinear Bible. Great if you want to learn Hebrew or Greek. (smiley-wink)
