How to read position from PCI 7342

[bkk]

Now, I just use PCI 7342 (First time) . I want to read position and velocity from encoder that i connect to the board. I never use this card

could someone help me. or give  me .vi for example? Thank you.

Hi,

Connect the encoder to the UMI. Drag the read position VI into the block diagram and put it in a while loop. Give the board ID as shown in max. Provide the axis to which the encoder i connected. Put an indicator to diaply the counts.Now run the VI and rotate the encoder to see the counts.

Please find the examples in LabVIEW folder. The VI that you want is already demonstrated there. I do not have motion driver installed, so can give example, sorry.

Hey bkk,

You can find all the motion examples in the following folder: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW x.x \examples\Motion\FlexMotion. You can find these examples if you have the NI-Motion driver installed. Also, you can find examples in the NI Example Finder if you do a search and Browse by directory structure - in the Motion folder.
