Since the NI 9514 is not usable on a SBRIO I need to use a NI 9505 module.
In the manual of the module a found a Block diagram for it, containing FPGA parts for:
But i cannot find examples containing that code (only an example with position control i can find).
Does anyone have such an example available?

Dear Mr Engelen,
Thank you so much for your post on our webforum. I noticed the Basic Servo (9505 & 9401).lvproj example when using the search tab and searching for 9505. It contains a position / velocity loop and a current loop.
Best regards,

Dear Ben,
I have one short addition; with NI RIO 3.3 you are able to access the NI 9514 with the FPGA, a similar example is included with the 3.3 driver.

Hi Martijn.
I noticed your comment about using the 9514 with FPGA and RIO 3.3.
I opened the RIO and SoftMotion example projects for this, called "Basic Servo (9514).lvproj" and "NI 9514 Basic Move.lvproj".
When I connect to my 9073 cRIO controller, the FPGA VI is broken basically because all of the instances of the FPGA I/O Property Node lebeled "Mod1", which refer to my 9514 module, are broken. I can't figure out a way to generate new property nodes or to get the existing nodes to connect to my 9514 module.
Any ideas? I checked MAX, and I definitely have cRIO 3.3 installed and I'm using SoftMotion 2009 SP1.

Hello Jeff,
thank you so much for your post. I don't have this example installed, but let me explain what I do to get examples working for my real life target;
- please add your cRIO system to the project, and it is best to save the complete project into another directory (you may not want to change your examples)
- remove the IO items folder from the 9514 module on your cRIO system
- move the IO items and the FPGA VI from the example cRIO system to your cRIO system
- expand the IO folder and right click a IO item and chose select resource; you are now able to select the resource from yout module
I hope this will help you further, please let me know if you have any further questions,
Many greetings,
