The cDAQ 9178 is an 8 slot chassis. What modules do you have in it?

if you can tell me which modules i need i will go and buy them,
but when i will have what i need,what is the next step?can i connect the motor directly to the module?is there any labview code available which solve this problem?
thank you very much for your answer

[mikeporter]

First, tell me a bit about your application. What are you trying to do with the motor?

Mike?

Thank you both for posting on NI Discussion Forums. It looks like you are close to finding an answer to your questions. Also, our engineers at National Instruments would be glad to help you find the products that you need to meet your applications needs. We are here to help.

I believe that this post should have been made in the Motion Control board rather than the LabVIEW board. These forums are moderated by NI engineers. By posting in the correct board, the posts are routed to the correct engineering teams so that we can assist you all more efficiently.

I have two cameras and a mirror between them,with the engine I control the motion of the mirror,and the type of cammera i use.so now i am trying to sync the mirror motion with labview but i dont really know how

now i see that i got the 9215 module
can i connect the motor directly to it?

A NI-9215 has 4 simultaneously sampled analog inputs.

How do you expect that will help you control a motor?

You need to contact your local NI sales rep so they can visit you and discuss your application.
