How can I see in LabVIEW if an axis is enabled or disabled?

Solved!

Hello!

I know how to set the axis in enabled or disabled state but how can I see if the command has been executed when using LabVIEW?

I am using a PCI 7340 motion card with encoder feedback.

Regards

Ola

Read Axis Status.vi is your friend.

In LV2010 : Functions palette >> Vision and Motion >>NI 73xx >> Advanced >> Read >> Status

Sorry, I have just noticed that this VI is not compatible with the 73xx motion boards !

Give Read per Axis Status.vi a try. According to below extract of the help, I'm not shure if the Motor Off bit will reflect the axis enabled/disabled status.
