Epos4 maxon driver with Labview USB communication

Good morning,

 

I'm trying to control a motor using a Maxon driver EPOS 4 Compact 24/1.5 CAN and LabVIEW 2018 SP1. The communication between the driver and the PC is made by an USB cable on a 3.0 COM port.

 

The command is well sent but my Labview windows is completely stuck during the process and the motor is still running. When I tried to send a long time command (sequence), a timeout is triggered and stock the process and the motor. I thinks it's a communication rate problem because if I change the baudrate communication, the timeout is triggered more or less quickly. (See how I've configure my COM port below). My schematic is quite simple, I release the errors, enable axis, move to absolute position, disable axis. Is there any things that I've forgot ? Thank you for your time

You can check or configure the baud rate using Maxon’s EPOS Studio software. This software allows you to set the communication parameters for your EPOS 4 driver.

CAN Analyzer: If you have access to a CAN analyzer or a CAN diagnostic tool, you can use it to inspect the CAN bus traffic. Some CAN analyzers can detect and display the baud rate being used by devices on the network.

 

EPOS, CAN, and LabVIEW should all be on the same page with baud rates.

Thank you for your answer.

My epos is configured like this :
