How to Write\Read NI-9516 module in FPGA Project?

[aviadCielo]

Hi,

I use NI-9149 RIO and NI-9516 module.

I want to write to the 9516 throw the FPGA. 

My project look like this:

How can I do It?

Thanks for advance,

Aviad

P.S: I read this paper, but don't know how to work throw it...

Sorry - I manage throw...

Thanx

Hi aviadCielo,

I would use the cRIO in hybrid mode. We have a helpful KB on using 951x modules in hybrid mode (http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/12287236ED86B789862576630059572C). From there you can create a virtual axis and program in SoftMotion. This will save you from having to do FPGA programming with the 9516.

Let me know if this works or if you still have the issue.

Thanks!

Its look good, but I don't mention that my project have to be implement over C++ code, so, if I don't miss something here, I can't escape from the FPGA programing, correct?

Thanks again,

I would check out the FPGA Servo Interface (9516) example which creates a SoftMotion axis using FPGA. That is probably your best resource.

Is there an updated link to this KB article?  When I click the link, there is an error.
