I'm currently developing a Micro Fatigue test rig. The objective is that the piezo actuator with piezo servo controller outputs a sinusoidal load on the specimen. The proces is force controlled so the displacements need to be alternated a bit to make sure the max, min and mean force remain constant. So to give a feedback I have a dynamic load cell with amplifier which gives an analogue signal of 0-10VDC or 4-20mA. The piezo servo controller only can have position signals as input so that has to be programmed in LabView. I don't have a lot of experience with LabView so what do I need to let the load cell and piezo servo controller to communicate via LabView? I'm guessing a DAQ system but I'm not very experienced with this.
See the pdf-files for some more info on the actuator and it's controller.
