Are there any simple LabVIEW motion program for Newport MM4006 controller

My system consists of a PC with a IEEE488.2 from NI that connects to 2 Newport MM4006 controllers, which, in turn control a high-precision stage.
I would like to know if you can provide me with any simple motion programs in LabVIEW. Since I am starting to learn motion programming, I would like to know if there are any existing LabVIEW VIs that allow easy inputting of the motion commands.
I am having some trouble in ordering each motion segment's commands in LabVIEW environment, so I guess some examples might help me to clarify the correct syntax and logic in LabVIEW. Right now, I am using mostly the SendCommand sub VI in the MM4006 package downloaded from National Instruments to issue the seque
nce of the commands that are supposed to be executed one after the other in order to perform a specific path. Do you know if there exists any other bette way of issuing a long sequence of the motion
commands?
Alos, can FlexMotion be used for my system? What are the requirement for usign FlexMotion in LabVIEW. Is it the best way to program a motion VI for my system?

The FlexMotion VIs can only be used with our FlexMotion controllers, not GPIB devices. For your Newport controllers, the best thing to use is the instrument driver that you downloaded off of our website. This code was contributed to our website so we don't have any example programs to go with it. I looked on Newport's website and they mentioned that they had sample code for this controller. You might want to contact them and see what they have.

  • Are there any good DVD authoring programs for Mac now that Apple has discontinued DVD Studio and iDVD? I need to make DVDs that have interactive menus and such (Final Cut X and Compressor 4's DVD option is a little cheap). Any ideas?

    Are there any good DVD authoring programs for Mac now that Apple has discontinued DVD Studio and iDVD? I need to make DVDs that have interactive menus and such (Final Cut X and Compressor 4's DVD option is a little cheap and doesn't provide any kind of professional DVD authoring). Any ideas?

    This comes up a lot these days.
    Practically speaking, there are really four options for the Mac platform: Toast (<$100),  Adobe Premier Productiom ($1,600 to buy or $50/month to rent),  find a copy of Final Cut Studio from 3rd  party (+/- $1,000 new) or a boxed edition of iLife to get iDVD ($50 - $90 on Amazon new).
    The other question everyone has is how many OS versions before iDVD or FCS breaks? No one knows, but Apple has said they're no longer supporting these legacy apps. Of course, no one is mandated to upgrade to a new OS unless they buy a new computer. So if it works on a system, stay with it as long as it makes sense.
    Good luck.

  • Are there any legit DVD authoring programs for Mavericks?

    Seems like Apple is just done with optical media... which is probably about a decade early.
    In any case, does anyone have a legit (as in I won't be beta testing software for 3 days) / simple program for authorizing DVDs.

    I was unaware until yesterday that FCPX could burn a basic DVD.  We will give this a try.
    None of us are pros... so we're just creating archives of things we import into iMovie presently.   But we just invested in a new Mac Pro, so it's definitely time to look at FCPX and figure out how we can leverage its capabilities... We need a workflow that is simple and can be followed off of a ilst of instructions.  ... Thus, we've defaulted to iMovie.  I'll have to spend some time on Lynda and get it figured out.
    I was sure that when I brought in iDVD onto the new Mac Pro it would work, but something is failing someplace, between the new Mac Pro, Mavericks, iDVD, the LG Blu-ray burner, and our standard DVDs.
    Anyway, I appreciate your suggestions and your time.

  • Are there any available upgrades or updates for osx 10.6.8

    are there any available upgrades or updates for OS X 10.6.8       Version 5.1.10 (6534.59.10)

    Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

    Are there any presets in iPhoto '11 for print quality?

    No.  Just use the greatest number of pixels for your photo available.  Other quality settings would be in the printer window, i.e. color settings, etc.

  • Are there any apps like outlook but for the ipads?

    are there any apps like outlook but for the ipads?
    I want to manage my calendars appointments outlook is perfect but is it compatable for ipad

    Yes Outlook is Compatible for iPAD, but you have to buy it as an additional APP. However you can download something called "iCloud Control Panel" for Windows Machine & Install it. This would integrate all your Windows Calendar in Outlook to iCloud.
    Then enable iCloud in your iPad. All your contacts & calendars would sync automatically to your outlook on the windows machine. You can actuallu configure "Mail" app in the iPad to your exchange server.

  • Are there any problems with motion menus and buttons in DVDSP 2 on OS 10.4?

    I have not used DVD Studio Pro 2 since upgrading to Tiger but it appears to no longer be showing moving motion on menus and buttons.
    Are there any problems that I should be aware of when using DVDSP2 on OS 10.4?
    I have not upgrade to a newer version only because I do not have any HD software to create DVDs.
    Thanks

  • Are there any free remote desktop programs

    Are there any free remote desktop or remote assistance programs available for Panther? I only need a server for the Panther computer, as I would be helping that user, but he would not need to help me. I was wondering if anyone knew of any. I wanted to try LogMeIn, but it requires Tiger. I couldn't find anything at Wikipedia's comparison of remote desktop applications. Thanks

  • Are there any out the box tools for detailing Exchange organization ?

    Are there any tools which we go out an audit an exchange enviornment showing the servers, roles and configuration ?  it needs to be able to get this information ideally for all versions of Exchange 2003, 2007, 2010 and 2013.
    Thanks in advance.

    You can collect the Organizational Health in Exchange 2010 console for Exchange 2003/2007/2010 and that will list very useful information about statistics in your organization like servers, databases, CALs, recipient, feature used etc...

    However it doesn't contain any configuration information and that you need to collect it manually because that depends on needs of each organization and how they want to setup their infrastructure...

  • Are there some simple start up instructions for a first time user of Lion Server?

    Our small office has been using MobileMe to share one central calendar on a mac mini with 4 users MBPro users.  We were also using a 3rd party application (Address Book Server (ABS)) to share a central Address Book contact database with the same 4 users.  It was all working fine.  Then we upgraded all our systems to Lion and iCloud.  Calendar sharing works fine, but it broke our contact sharing.  ABS used the old sync capability.  Now all our contacts are on iCloud, and they won't sync anymore.
    Does anyone know if there is a way to share contacts among several users in iCloud?  (I haven't found one.)
    We are now considering Lion Server, but all we need it for is sharing contacts (shared calendars under iCloud works fine).
    Can we install Lion Server for just contacts and continue to use iCloud for calendar sharing?
    Is there some simple Start up documentation available for Lion Server that I can read before I jump into it?
    How much time is it really going to take to install and manage a server system?
    We are not IT professionals.  Just a small office of professionals, who want the conveninece of shared calendars and shared contacts.  We all have our own calendars and contacts as well, and we want to be able to see them on all our devices: MBPros, iPhones, iPads etc.
    Thanks so much for your help.

    You can use Lion Server in place of the MobileMe/iCloud account. That would be your best bet. Lion Server has built into it an address book server and a calendar server which would take the place of what you are currently using.
    Lion Server is designed to be quite easy to setup and run. It is pitched as being meant for people who "don't have an IT Department." Honestly, most of it is just on/off switches. If you have a Mac Mini and all of your users are on their MacBook Pros, you pretty much have the hardware necessary. Assuming all of your machines can run Lion, you should be good to go.
    The most technical you might have to get is to get a domain name from some place like godaddy.com. The Server App actually walks ou through the whole setup process step-by-step. Not to mention that there is a vibrant community of users to be help out. And once it is up and running, there is very little you should have to do to it.
    There are a lot of technical components to any server platform, and Apple is no exception, however they do a good job at hiding it. And at $49, you do not have much to lose. Plus, you only really need to use the components you want. If all you want in address book server and ical server, then just use those. You find you want to start sharing documents, turn on file sharing. It is up to you. Don't feel pressured to have to use every component.
    Apple has posted they "Advanced Administration Guide" which has a lot of good information in it, and it is searchable. Check it out: https://help.apple.com/advancedserveradmin/mac/10.7/
