how can i measure a voltage with the digital i/o port on my nudrive using labview?

[Raven24]

I am using a 4SX-411 nu drive to control my stepper motor. I need to measure an input voltage at the digital I/O port of the nudrive. How can I program LabVIEW to do that?
Thanks

Hello Raven24,

Thank you for contacting National Instruments. NUDrive 4SX-411 is a value motion drive and you can connect to it using any of the ValueMotion boards. When using a ValueMotion NUDrive with steppers you have I/O ports 1-4 available for general purpose use, I/O ports 5-8 are reserved for axis inhibit output signals. Refer to section 4-7 of the ValueMotion Hardware User Manual linked below, for information about the jumper settings.

Once you have setup the jumpers appropriately, you can use the VIs found on the ValueMotion I/O & Limits pallet for configuring and using the I/O channels. Search for "I/O" in the attached help file for more information about these VIs. I hope this helps you out. Have a great day!
