3rd Party Stepper Motor and Driver

[carrotop117]

I am working with a G213V Stepper Motor Driver by GekoDrive and a G723-400-4 Stepper Motor and an NI 9263 module for cRIO. The motor will be used to move a tool up and down a lead screw so this is a fairly simple application. That being said, this is my first time using LabView for this type of application and I have not been able to get the motor to move. So far I have tried to generate a signal and then have that output from the 9263 into the step function for my driver. I also at the same time had power going to the direction port on my driver. These two things should have been able to create motion, at least from my feeble understanding of this type of system. 

Is there something that I am missing?

Also, any suggestions on better ways to make this motor run? 

Thank you!

A couple things to check.  You didn't mention it, but make sure you have the proper power going to your drive.  Also, the 9263 is an analog output module.  You want to generate pulses, so I think you really need a different cRIO module.  Some stepper drives can be picky about the the type(quality) of pulse they get.  If you have access to a scope, see what your pulses look like.
