dc motor control with H-Bridge..DAQ

[coolrthancoolio]

So I have a USB DAQ 6008, DC motor, Hbridge and 2 Limit switches...

What I need to have done is to control a DC motor so that it turns on for a 1 second and turn off for 2 seconds....and then as it approaches a limit switch it continues in the opposite dirrection and then for the switch vise versa...

So far i can only turn on the motor but no timing sequence...

I am kinda new to labview...so any help would work such as a tutorial or some guidance...thanks

Hi cool,

I'm not sure if the 6008 is the best option.  You may be able to do it by setting up a continuous analog output task.  Then you can use the DAQmx Stop VI to stop the task after 1 second and then the DAQmx start to start it again after 2 seconds.
