I need a driver for a Pontech STP100 Stepper Motor Controller.

I need a driver for Labview to communicate with the Pontech STP100 stepper motor controller board in my lab. I have tried using the tutorials in Labview to figure out how to create the driver, but with no success.

If there are any suggestions on how to create the driver or if someone has an example I can see it would be greatly appreciated.

Read documentation for the Pontech STP100 if you have not already...from looking at their site I see they offer control of the motor controller via serial commands (232/485). You can use the NI-VISA API in LabVIEW to connect to and send/receive information over serial...

 

Good luck!
