Connecting Parker's AR-08AE driver to PCI 7350 card

I have an Aries AR-08AE servo driver (by Parker) to drive a brushless servo motor (also by Parker). I have been unsuccessful at connecting the motor to the PCI 7350 card through a 68-pin screw terminal. I cannot get the motor to respond when i use the "interactive" section of MAX.
I have no prior experience with motion control. Can someone please explain to me the proper wiring configuration between these two devices. I've attached the pin diagram for the Drive I/O Connector of the Aries driver.
Thanks in advance

Hi John,
I don't have access to your drive or motor so I couldn't test this configuration, but it should work something like this to drive your servo motor. Make sure you double check our Manual for the 7350 Controller against the manual for the drive.
7350 Controller   Drive
Pin 6                   Pin 1
Pin 3                   Pin 21
Pin 32                Pin 14
Pin 31                Pin 15
Encoders:
Pin 36               Pin 3
Pin 3               Pin 4
Pin 37               Pin 5
Pin 3               Pin 6
Pin 38               Pin 7
Pin 3               Pin 8
That should be all you need to get it to work. Also make sure you check the Inhibit polarity from MAX to be sure Inhibt is not enabled when you are trying to do a move.

Does NI DAQmx driver support PCI 6527 Card

In my application i am using PCI 6527 Isolated DIO Card. In the examples from LabVIEW 7.0, i refered the following VIs
1. Write Dig Chan.vi
2. Write Dig Port.vi
using DAQ 7 Driver.
There it gives a list of devices that can run these examples. The list does not contains PCI 6527.
Can I use DAQmx Example VIs with PCI 6527 Card?
Please suggest me what driver to use with 6527 Card (Traditional DAQ or DAQmx).

Hello partners,
I'm using NI DAQmx 9.7 in a machine hosting a Windows 7, but always when I tried to run the application I got this error.:
CAN'T LOCATE THE DRIVER ERROR 10240
Does you have any idea why could I'm facing this problem ? Previously I was using the original driver NI DAQ 7.4.4 (Legacy) in a machine hosting a Windows XP.
Other point perhaps here isn't the best place to start this new post, but I couldn't find how to post a new topic on the site.. My apologies, i'm waiting for any solution or advice

Tape drive and pci-x card with Solaris 10 on VMWare environment

I have a Sun X4170 server (x84_64) running VMWare ESXi 4.0. On it I have two VM guests- my production file server running Solaris 10 U7 and a test file server running Solaris 10 U9.
The X4170 has a PCI-X LSI Logic dual external U320 parallel scsi card. I have a tape drive + auto loader cabled to the X4170. It is a Quantum branded autoloader but I believe the tape drive itself is HP. The autoloader+tape drive share a single SCSI ID (6) but have separate LUNS.
I have two choices for making this system accessible to the OS:
- Virtualize the tape drive and loader individually.
- In VMWare, enable the scsi card as a pass through device. The SCSI card is then added as PCI device to the virtual machine (actually two devices since it is a dual scsi card.)
I had virtualized a single-drive tape drives with Vmware in the past.
However, when I tried I virtualize tape drive and loader, Solaris complained about the scsi id’s being invalid. I don’t think it likes two devices with a single scsi ID. Also, I think I need the backup software to see the REAL tape drive and autoloader (for inventory, changing tapes etc)
On the Solaris 10 U9 “Test” machine:

Any ideas? Maybe a need to update the MPT driver or is that dangerous?
Thanks

Actually, updating the kernel patches (and enabling hot plug service) did solve the problem. At some point during between testing the system before and after patching, the tape drive got turned off. Since the system patching was being done remotely it was not immediately obvious that the tape drive was off.

Connecting Yaskawa Sigma FSP Motor Drive With UMI-7774 and PCI-7344

Hi,
i have PCI-7344 and UMI-7774 that i want to connect to this Servo motor drive of Yaskawa.
1) How do i know if this motor drive is compatible with the pci-7344 and umi7774 ?
     for example: inside the UMI manual is written that the Motor drive must support "Sinusoidal Commutation"
     i look indside the Motor Drive manual and i dont found anything about this.
     this is link to the motor drive:
     http://www.yaskawa.com/site/products.nsf/products/Servo%20Amplifiers~fspsigma.html
     http://www.yaskawa.com/site/products.nsf/products/Servo%20Amplifiers~fspsigma.html?openDocument&seq=...
2) How do i connect the feedback and control lines from the UMI to the Motor drive?
i'll appreciate any help including posting a link to a tutorial that helps to understand the signals from the motor drive and the encoder
And also the umi-7344 (Phase A, Phase B, Hall sensor, inhibit, Fault, etc... )
Some powerpoint or Pdf tutorial that National instruments provide will help as well.
P.S. i read the manual of the UMI-7774 and the pci7344 manual, but i'm yet not understand what i need to do
in order to configure my motion system :
PCI-7344 , UMI-7774 , Motor Drive (Sigma FSP Yaskawa) , Servo Motor (Yaskawa)
Thanks for any help.

Dear Nate,
Thank you for repling to my posts, i really appreciate that.
The links you provide is very helpfull.
i'm enginner in my education, but not in this area (i'm information systems eng.)
i decided that i need to learn more about it (ni-imaq, ni-motion, line-scan camera, servo, servo drives, encoder signals, motion i/o, umi, pci7344, etc..)
So, i download the manual and help files that is needed to my application i want to build
(high speed machine vision of color line-scan camera connected to motion with rtsi synchronization and also digital i/o)
and now i'm reading ALL this, its huge amount to read, and not all the thing i understand in the begining (english is not my lang..)
Thanks again for the replies.

How can I connect a DLT-IV Tape drive with SCSI interface to Quad G5?

I have had no problems with my "Quantum equivalent La Cie DLT-IV Tape drive" on OSX connected to the G4 Quicksilver using an Adaptec 2930CU PCI card - but I can't move that to the G5 as it has to be PCI-Express cards as far as I can tell.
Adaptec pre-sales support inform me that Adaptec have no Mac support in their current product range.
Has anyone found a solution to this connection requirement that will work with Retrospect and DVD StudioPro?
If there is a workable solution which is no longer available to buy - I would still be interested in knowing so I could scour ebay for it.
TIA,
Richard

Hi Richard;
If you go to ATTO, they are offering a ExpressPCI PSC which include a SCSI bus on sale for $24.11.

Can I connect an external DLT Tape drive to the SCSI connector on an E450

Hi... totally new to SPARC. I have inherited an E450. It appears to have the 8 bay option. I have 6 scsi disk drives installed in slots 0 through 5. Internally, there is one ultra scsi controller in slot 2 and two internal cables running from the top of the card, one for each channel. I do have an extra ultra pci scsi card, but when I plugged it into a pci slot, the system would not boot. Bottom line, can I connect an external DLT drive to either Channel A or Channel B at the rear of the Unit and not intefere with other SCSI devices (i.e. the disk drives). Currently, the DLT is set to SCSI ID 8. If this isn't recommended, how do I install the secondary ultra scsi card and have the system recognize it ? Note that the Hard drives have been wiped and I WILL be loading Solaris 10, but have not yet. I wanted to make sure all of the hardware worked first. The second PCI Scsi controller I have is an Adaptec 39160, and I'm assumming it will work IF needed. I'd prefer not to use it if necessary.... ANY HELP is sincerely appreciated ! Thanks, Randy

I suggest you leave the current internal connections just as they are.
You never know when you'll need to add more disks.
That Adaptec card is for PC's.
It won't work in a Sun SPARC-based system.
What sort of SCSI interface is required for that tape device?
Single-Ended? High Voltage Differential? Low Voltage Differential?
You need a card that matches that interface type if you hope it to "drive" the tape.
One quick way to tell, is to examine the chassis of the tape peripheral
and find the small icon that should be at the port for the SCSI cable.
For example, Sun's 375-0005 card is Single-ended and is what you already have inside your E450.
Sun's 375-0006 is a HVD card and would be correct for A1000 and D1000 arrays or L7 or L25 tape libraries.
Sun's 375-3057 card is LVD and would be appropriate for Sun's D2 array.
The manual for that 375-3057 card happens to have pictures of the SCSI icons I just mentioned.
See page 35 in that manual.
http://192.18.109.11/816-2156-11/816-2156-11.pdf
Once you confirm what's needed by the tape peripheral, we may be able to suggest how to connect it properly.

Has anyone used the Parker Bayside BDS I-Drive servo controller via serial

I need to send 3 pairs of speed and position setpoints from Labview over a serial connection to a Parker Bayside BDS I-Drive servo controller. They actually use the USS protocol from the Siemens drives. Has anyone already done this? And maybe could provide some pointers to a novice?
PS this a repost of a question I left in the Machine Vision forum by mistake.

Hi DRP,
I regularly look at both the Vision and Motion boards, so I showed your post to a buddy of mine who does a lot of serial communication. From a programming standpoint, this application looks like its just LabVIEW code to control serial outputs, which (depending on your expertise) might make the project significantly easier. Either way, Craig should be able to help you out on your original thread.
Good luck with your program,
Robert

Connecting a HP3497A with a NI PCI GPIB card.

Hello, I would like to be able to connect the above mentioned HP product with a NI PCI GPIB card. As I have no prior experience with this equipment, I wanted to know what basic important steps I would have to take to achieve this?

Mbugua,
On the hardware end you'll need a GPIB cable to connect the card with your instrument. On the software side, you'll need the NI-488.2 driver. Please follow this link to download the proper driver version for your OS. I highly recommend that you use LabVIEW 7.0 to communicate with the instrument. If you prefer text-based programming LabWindows/CVI 7.0 would be a great choice. You can check out www.ni.com/idnet to download a library of functions to even further ease communication with t
he HP3497A (currently there is a download designed for CVI).
There are a great deal of manuals available online. Please navigate to www.ni.com and choose "support" to search through them as well as our Knowledge Base.
Please follow the following procedure of installation:
1) Install LabVIEW or LabWindows/CVI (or both)
2) Install NI-488.2 (hardware driver for the PCI-GPIB)
3) Insert the PCI-GPIB into your computer

Dear Koninika,
thank you for your assistance very much.
No, I would like to have two computers that communicating whith the same instruments by means of GPIB bus. Both computers have got NI PCI-GPIB card. The addresses is different. Both GPIB boards are system controller. This system works very well untill both computer try to use GPIB bus at the same time. I realize that my confuguration is not fully correct and I have to use call like pass control. But this approach is not fit to my application since it is necessary for me to get two independet system. Using the NI LAN-GPIB gateway hardware does not fit as well since it is impossimle (as far as I understand) to obtain exclusive lock of GPIB-ENET hardware by means of NI VISA and go on u
sing instruments drivers (see my questions "exclusive lock of GPIB or GPIB-ENET hardware by means of NI VISA" in VISA forum).
With best regards,

Should I Get A PCI Sata Card For Internal Drives

I'm transferring Files from old G4 to a new G5 and it's taking forever. The sata drives seem to work slower. When I transfer the same way(Firewire)on my G4 it's much faster. Someone said to get a PCI sata card and hook up my internals to that instead of the factory connection. That it's faster that way. I'm going to have to burn to dvd and transfer that way, but it seems to defeat the purpose. Any suggestions are appreciated.
G5 Dual Core 2.0 with 2.5 GB and 2 250 Drives

Come to think of it, the last time I needed to transfer some media from my G4 to G5, the quickest and easiest way (mind you they are in separate rooms), was to pop out the G4 drive and use one of these cheap IDE USB adapters. Since the G5 is USB2, the process was pretty quick.
My guess about the G5 in target mode is there must be some kind of overhead, but the SATA is FAR and away faster than the FW connection between them, so a SATA card won't help.
Shane Ross and I are currently using "popsicle stick" internal RAIDs in our G5s. See this thread:

Difference between using app server connection pooling and using the driver

Hi all,
How to get connection pooling with out application server and tomcat also?
What is the difference between using app server connection pooling and using the driver supported connection pooling?
Regards,

maybe the performance of App server pool is better than the JDBC pool,
for you don't know wether the implementation of the JDBC interface is good or bad.

Can I connect a 4 TB USB drive to the airport extreme and use it as a network drive for Time Machine

Can I connect a 4 TB USB drive to the airport extreme and use it as a network drive for Time Machine

Yes, if the drive is formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
The USB port on the Time Capsule is under powered, so you may need use a powered USB hub with the 4 TB drive...even if it has its own power supply.

I have a PCI-FBUS card (dual port), can't connect over 60 devices to it?

I connect to various Fieldbus devices (all from the same manufacturer and same type as we are an OEM) that I am testing (I have 80 in my test system). I have the dual port PCI Fieldbus card and am running communication manager 3.2 on Windows XP with service pack 2. As part of my pretest (getting the devices on the bus and assigning them a unique address) I connect to a device and change its address to 20 and power off the device to have it drop off the bus then relay in the next device and connect to it and change the address to 21 etc etc---this process makes it easiest for me as then all I have to do is connect to the only device on the bus and know that it is the device I am interested in assigning to it a new unique address as the others are not on the bus. I am able to get 30 devices per port (60 devices total since I have a dual port card). After the 30th device is connected, albeit no devices show up on the bus since they are all powered off, I relay in my 31st device but I can't connect to it on a given port (at this point I have 30 devices that were connected to each port but are now powered off). I have the card configured to operate within the address range of 16-102 for both ports.
What is the limit of the number of devices that can be connected to a given port? What would be the recommended way of connected say 80 devices to a PCI card (40 per port). For my application, after the so called pretest is complete, I do have to have up to 8 devices powered on at the same time (4 per port) so that is why I want to keep the addresses unique per device. By the way I know this is not a physical connection issue with my station as I can connect to all devices when I limit my test to 60 devices (i.e. I can do the first 60 or the last 60 so the wiring etc is good as well as my assigned address space/parameters for the NI card).

Hello Jim,
In NI-FBUS, the max number of devices that can be connected to a segment (port) at one same time is 32. This value is defined by FF specification.
Please try the following method.
After connecting the 30th device, restart NI-FBUS Communications Manager (CM), then connect the 31th device. Check whether the problem still occurs.
