Multispeed control of motor with time intervals

hi all
i want write a program that can control speed of a servo motor with respect to time intervals or hold time,
i am enabling the drive throught digital output and speed by analoge output to the drive
The program should be such that (Multistep Speed Control with respect to time)
For example
Step 1 Rpm: 100 Time Duration : 2mins
Step 2 Rpm: 200 Time Duration : 2mins
Step 3 Rpm: 300 Time Duration : 2mins
Step 2 Rpm: 200 Time Duration : 24mins
Test duration 30mins
can any one help to write the program

Hi hs_unl,
Could tell me more about the ProboStep MicroStepping Driver, the links you provided are the same and they point to the stepper motor.
As far as the USB 6009 you will need the DAQmx drivers which you can find here. There are many examples that come with the LabVIEW, however it all depends on what kind of signals need to go to the MicroStepping Driver. Also, you can take a look at Getting Started with NI-DAQmx guide to get started with programming. Also, take a look at Learn 10 Functions in NI-DAQmx and Handle 80 Percent of Your Data Acquisition Applications tutorial page.

How do I make a radio button control change automatically with time?

Hello everybody
I have a radio button selection with 4 options (Line A, B, C, D) which controls a number of valves depending on which line is sampled. Right now I have to do this selection manually but the proccess requires that each line is sampled for 15 seconds.
Is there a way to do this automatically, meaning when I press a button (e.x. START) radio selection goes to Line A, after 15 seconds to line B, after 15 seconds to Line C, after 15 seconds to line B, after 15 seconds to Line D, and then from the beginnining to line A, B, etc..., until I press the stop button.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks for your time

Hi evdo,
'tst' is right. The "Radio Buttons" control from the "Boolean" palette
is basically an Enum. You can add or remove elements as you want and
only one element can be TRUE at any time (just as the Enum only can
have one selected item at any time). Just copy and paste the radio
buttons within the frame to add more choices/elements.
I created a small example that takes tst's example a little further. I
implemented the four choices and added an Event Structure for better
timing. Give it a try and let me know what you think, thanks.
Have fun!

How can I control stepping motor with PCI-7344 & UMI-7764? And I want to know the simplest circuit that I can do by myself?

Now I don't want to by commercial stepping motor driver, I want to do it by myself. I want to know the simplest driver circuit to drive and control my stepping motor (+5V 4 phases).

From the 7344's perspective, in open loop stepper mode, the only necessary outputs are the pulse train for steps and a TTL flag for direction. You can also set it for CW/CCW mode, which will output two separate pulse trains: one for clockwise motion, one for counter-clockwise motion.
If you only need to decode the signals into four phases and not amplify them above 5V, then a small IC might work for you (as long as you don't need a lot of current). A reconfigurable FPGA could be programmed to decode the incoming signal and output the four phases pretty easily. However, I honestly believe your best bet is just to buy a recommended amplifier for the motors.
Good Luck

Display various time intervals in Flex

Hi I am using Flex SDK 4.1. I need to give users a control to select 2 time intervals for each day of the week as below.
I was wondering whether there is a neat way of doing this in Flex. Is there a control I could look into..
Ideally I would like to avoid giving users a freetext box. Any ideas????
Mon      9:00 – 13:00   17:00-21:00
Tues      9:00 – 13:00   17:00-21:00
Wed      9:00 – 13:00   17:00-21:00
Thurs    9:00 – 13:00   17:00-21:00
Fri         9:00 – 13:00   17:00-21:00
Sat        9:00 – 13:00   17:00-21:00
Sun       9:00 – 13:00   17:00-21:00

Hi Rajesh,
you have a Chart
Rght Click on it-->Select Chart Expert
--> then in the Data Tab, move the date time field in the top list (just Select field Using > button move it)
--> similarly "amount" in below list.
then refresh it.
It will show the chart " DateTime/amount" .
but if you want the chart(x-axis) should display only "14/12/2010 1:00PM , 14/12/2010 2:00PM" not "14/12/2010 1:30PM"
you have to write this code in Select Expert in Report Menu
{VENDOR_csv.date time} like "//* *:00?M"
'*' is one or more occurances
'?' is one occurance
this will give you proper Result at every Hour
Thanks

How to limit data range in a Line chart with Time Refresh Control

Hi All,
I have a Line chart with Time Refresh Control and I would like to make some constraints to this navigation.
For example, I would like to limit the user to navigate in a data range of 8 hours.
Is this posible?
Thanks in advance

Hi Pedro,
as far as I know, this is not possible using the time controls on an iChart. However, you may have some success by using your own time controls which call JavaScript methods exposed by the applet.
For example, you could begin by hiding the time and calendar buttons on an iChart, and creating some buttons of your own. For instance, to set the start date of a query (and thus the start date of the iChart using the query), you can use the following:
document.getElementById("appletID").getQueryObject().setStartDate(<date string>);
Using code like the above (look into the xMII script assistant and documentation), you should be able to build time controls which satisfy your requirements. The exact format of <date string> in the sample above will depend on the date format defined in the query template this script calls.
Hope this helps,
Sascha

How do I control the motors in a third party usb toy with LabVIEW?

Any suggestions?

Hi, if you are only wanting to control motors than you have a lot of options. Use the parallel port with a current driver, use the serial port and a micro to control the motor. If you want to interface the USB device than this is where to get started.

Have keyframes in effect controls window coincide with main time line

Hello,
Is there any way I can have the time line in my effects control window coincide with my main time line ?
Example, I add keyframes along my main time line, but any time I wish to edit them, I need to scrub my effect controls window timeline to get to that
spot that coincides on the main time line. I'm just wondering how I can have both time lines show the same area at the same time.
So if I'm at the end of my time line, and add a keyframe, and then wish to just scrub or move my cursor to the beginning of my main time line, the
time line in the upper window ( effects control window ) does not reflect the area of the main time line I am currently at, I need to actually click the time time
line ( main time line ) in order to "refresh" the upper effect control window time line.
Thanks for any advice,
Dave.

Hi Jim,
that's what I mean, thanks for info. I guess this isn't a popular want from users, I just thought it would be neat if we could do this, it's not a big deal, but I thought
I would ask. Thanks for the informatiion - at least I know now.

Controlling a Nanomotion motor with LabVIEW?

What do I need to run a Nanomotion motor with LabVIEW?

The Nanomotion motor which I intend to use is a HR4, for alignment purposes in a cleanroom environment. Do you have any experience in using this or other Nanomotion motors please add a comment to this post.

Marcus,
some years ago I have used an NI 7344 motion control board to control a Nanomotion ultrasonic actuator. I don't remember the model type of the drive, but it has provided a +/- 10 V command input. The position feedback signal came from a quadrature encoder.
In fact NI's motion control R&D has worked with Nanomotion to implement some features into the control algorithm of the 734x and 735x boards to optimize the control behavior for Nanomotion actuators. The most important parameters, that were added to support these motors are the foward and reverse offset voltages to configure the static friction deadzone.
Brief explanation: There is a deadzone of approximately +/- 2 V at the command input, where the motor doesn't react to command voltage changes. The 734x and 735x boards can avoid this deadzone. Otherwise it would be very hard to properly control the actuator.
I hope that helps,

Control two stepper motors with PCI 7332 for sinusoidal movements

Hello,
I am now using two stepper motors of RK566BAE (Oriental motor). I connected those two motors with UMI-7764 and PCI-7332. I designed to have independent sinusoidal movement of each motor. The first motor is wired to Axis 1 and the second to Axis 2 (of UMI-7764).
I want to use Ni-Motion to create a single VI in LabVIEW which helps to control both motors. But I have not figured-out how to obtain the movement I desired.
Could you please advise me.
Thank you so much.

There are two ways to do elliptical arc moves:
Use contouring two download target position arrays to the onboard buffer
Use arc moves in combination with gearing (shipping example). This requires three axes.
The 7332 doesn't support contouring and gearing and it doesn't provide a third axis, so there is no way to use this board for this type of moves. The cheapest NI board that supports elliptical moves in contouring mode is the PCI-7342. As the second option requires three axes, at least a PCI-7344 is required for this method.
Here is a link to a feature comparison table for all NI 73xx motion control devices.
Kind regards,

Could you help me to control a DC motor with the parallel port and windows 2000?

I have labview 5.1 and i want to control my application throught the internet

I would recommend upgrading to LabVIEW 7.0 for a couple of reasons. First, LabVIEW 6.1 introduced remote front panels which allows you to control a VI through a web browser. Setting up remote front panels is very simple and that alone is worth the upgrade. As far a using the parallel port you can use VISA to send/receive commands via the parellel port if you are using a motor controller with a parellel interface. If you are talking about using the port on a bit level to control the motor, LabVIEW 7.0 ships which an example of how to do basic digital input output with the parallel port.

Denormalization with overlapping time intervals

The table keeps statuses for objects, along with times each status started and ended. Like:
ID   From   To   Status
=== ====   ==   ======
23   T1     T2    S1
23   T3     T4    S2
23   T5     T6    S3The statuses may start and end at arbitrary moments of time, and each object may have several statuses at the same time. So the time intervals in the above table may look like this:
T1------------T2
    T3----------------------T4
         T5----------T6So, for example, from T! to T3 the object has only S1, while from T5 to T2 it has all 3: S1, S2, and S3.
I need to denormalize the table and show in the same line all statuses the object is having at different time intervals, that is
ID   From   To   Status1 Status2 Status3
=== ====   ==   ======   ======= =======
23   T1     T3    S1
23   T3     T5    S1       S2
23   T5     T2    S1       S2       S3
23   T2     T6    S2       S3
23   T6     T4    S2

Saving data with automatic time intervals

Hi everyone
I am a new user with LabVIEW (I just started using it 3 weeks ago) and I am having a problem with data recording and saving.
Basically, what we want to do is to monitor data for four different variables countinuosly but saving them in automatic and specified time intervals. Specifically, we would like to save data countinuosly only for five minutes each hour. After the 5 minutes, only the saving function must be stopped for 1 hour then return to record for 5 minutes without shutting the major loop. Additionally, we would like to collect all the data in this way in one exel file per day for three weeks or more, so instead of creating a data file for each recording we would like to collect them in only one file per day.
Finally, if its possible, we would like to extract the mean of the data for one day in a single file. We are not interested in modifying the rate of data aquisition, we only want to focus on the saving rate. We tried many timed function (as Elapsed time, Time delay, Wait) and timed loops but it was impossible for us to syncronize different loops or to set up timing function for the saving issue without blocking the main loop work.
Data are collected throught the "write to measurement file" function.
any kind of help will be really appreciated!
Here we submit our front panel and block diagram of our VI.
Best regards
Solved!

Use a shift register to keep track of your start time. If the difference between the start time and the current time is less than 5 minutes, save the data. If the time difference is an hour, save the new time as the start time.

Dear Džon,
First of all, welcome to the NI Forums!
In order to actually implement a control system, you will either need Control Design and Simulation Toolkit ( http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/hu/nid/13854 )
or you will have to calculate the inverse Laplace of your resulting function and implement the numerical model.
By implementation I mean that you will most likely have to use numerical Integration.
How you should do it is the following:
Get the highest order of the outputs derivate to the left side of you equation --> a_n * Y^(n) = ....
where a_n is your coefficient resulted to Y^(n), then divide by a_n so you have something like: Y^(n) = ...
after this you must integrate n times in respect to time. So you will have the y(t) resulting function in time domain.
From there you must implement the equation on the right hand side with numerical methods. At the end you will most likely have a DAQmx task or an Express VI to actually output your control signal. (for that please refer to the examples of analog output / PWM)
However, if you have access to Control Design and Simulation Toolkit. You may realise your system in a simulation loop as replicate your block diagram structure. (Please check examples installed with the toolkit)
If you have a specific question then please feel free to ask, and provide as much detail as possible.
Best regards,

I have a Text control string box with some initial text. I would like to highlight old text with click of mouse and type in new data from keyboard

I have a text control string box with some initial text (says: Please enter Name). I would like the operator to click on the text control box and have it automatically highlight so that when new data is typed in the old erases (all at once) and the new data is now in the text box.
I tried using the "Text.Selection" property node and when I run it and put the mouse inside the text box the initial text is highlighted and if I press "delete" on the keyboard or if I start to type in new data the initial data does delete but once I start to type new characters they erase each other. For example if I want to type in “Willi
am” I type the “W” and then the “I” but the “I” erases the “W” and now I am only left with an “I” in the text box and so on. I appreciate any help

It seems you are continuously setting the property node over and over again. This should only happen once if you mouse over it.
Create a property node for your text control with the following three items:
(1) KeyFocus (wire a "true" constant to it)
(2) Text.SelStart (Wire a "zero" constant to it)
(3) Text.SelEnd (Wire a constant containing the string length of the text).
Put this property node inside an event structure, triggered by "Mouse enter" on the string control.
(see if the attached example works for you)
