Closed Loop Control of stepper motor using linear position sensors

[AsperAstrum]

Greetings,

I use a stepper motor with timing belt to enable linear motion in an axis. I can get absolute linear position information with the help of linear sensors and convert them to actual step data using math operations. I was wondering how I can feed this data back to the VI that moves the motor and create a closed control loop. Overshoot and number of pull in's are not a problem as long as the final position is correct (or within a certain tolerance).

My setup is as follows: PCIe 6321 and BNC 2110 for position measurement

 Greetings,

I use a stepper motor with timing belt to enable linear motion in an axis. I can get real time absolute linear position information with the help of linear sensors and convert them to actual step data using math operations. I was trying to find a way to feed this data back to the VI that moves the motor and create a closed control loop using LabView (not MAX). Overshoot and multiple pull in's are not a problem as long as the final position is correct (or within a certain tolerance). I was wondering if it was possible to feed the actual step data (which I received and calculated from linear sensors) to Movement VI's in LabView as "desired position" value? Is this possible? If not, does someone have another suggestion?

Thank you.
