Hi Amged,

 

It is not too difficult to generate an Analogue Output from a motion card. There are a couple of online documents that describe how to perform AO in MAX and an example of AO control using LabVIEW:

 

MAX 

 

Example 

Let me know how you get on with this information.

Thanks Laurence,

 

I am using a voltemeter to check my motion controller. The problem with this one there is no guidence for how to wire? I have 68 pins?

For example in max if you use the virtual DAQ device it will show you the connection diagram?

Hi Amged,

 

You can find out the pinout information from the 7340 user manual. I have attached the section here:

I hope that clarifies it.

Thanks,

 

I performed above mentioned example. I measured the voltage between 32 and 68 for the channel 1. I didn't observed any changes when I used the control slider. The axes are configured for stepper not for servo as recommended in the front panel.

It is working fine.

  • Measuring between 29&31
  • Select stepper motor
  • Select Analog feedback
