Hey,
I am trying to do an analog output to a linear actuator (with DC motor), to make it move in both directions. This means when i am driving the actuator in another direction i will need to change the polarity of the current.
I have two daq systems available, the USB 6009 and the PCI 6014
My specific questions are,
1.Is the analog outpout voltage from the two above emntioned daq systems dc current or ac current?
2.are we able to drive the actuator in both directions using either of the two daq systmes above. I ask this question because in the data sheets for the usb 6009 it says the analog output range is from 0 to 5V. But for the PCI 6014 it is -10 to +10V, hence making reversing the polarity possible.
Thankyou
