Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a driver to use with a Velmex VXM Steppinf Motor, I'm using Labview 2009.

Cheers

Hi Luke,

Here is all the drivers we have for Velmet products: http://search.ni.com/nisearch/app/main/p/bot/no/ap/tech/lang/en/pg/1/sn/catnav:id,n2:TV-PERIOD-velmex,ssnav:sup/

Have you contacted velmex to see if they have a LabVIEW Driver?

Kind Regards,

Thanks for the reply.  Yeah, I contacted Velmex directly and they offered me a link to a range of their drivers for Labview.  If anyone has a similar issue in the future then I recomend they contact velmex with what they're looking for.  Cheers!

Hi Owen,

 Currently, I am using Labview 2009 (version 9.0.1). We are using Labview to control a Velmex VXM stepper motor. The latest and great driver that we're using is:

VxmDriverLV7_1.vi

This seems to be out of date (judging by the 7_1). I checked the NI website as well as the link you sent me, and couldn't find a later version of this driver. The reason I'm inquiring about this driver is because our system sometimes crashes. I think it's due to our RS-232 connection between the PC and the stepper motor, whereby our commands to the stepper motor are sent via this driver VxmDriverLV7_1.vi.

Any assistance would be greater appreciated. Thank you.

Best,

Sami

Hi Sami,

This is a very old thread and as such I suggest that you would receive a far better response if you posted your question in a new thread. I would also recommend linking your new post to this thread.
