Hi prady,

 

- you need to install a MODBUS library for LabVIEW. There are several different implementations available with VIPM…

- you need to get a RS485 interface, the cheapest should be a USB-to-RS485 converter

 

Then read the manual coming with the motor driver to learn, which registers are needed/important. Set the values for those registers as described in the manual!

Best regards,
GerdW

Thanks a lot for the info. but, i already have the above things that i mentioned and i am reading manual but, i cant exactly identify and sketch in the labview to get a rotational movement.

 

I definitely need some inputs and any example VI if possible
