Greetings All! Coming soon is a LabView compatible driver that will allow servos, steppers and even VFDs to be controlled over a digital network. This does NOT require a "smart servo or drive" but a digital network communication card in your PC and network enabled servos, stepper and vfds can easily be commanded by driver VIs. This data should be posted on the NI Tools site later this month and also at www.yaskawa.com. Note: Min. Requirements are PC running Vista or XP Pro; LabView 8.5 and Mechatrolink Network enabled drives; Motion profiles are point to point and velocity due to operating in the Windows environment. Benefits: No breakout boards with losts of wiring; Plug n Work USB stlye connectors. LabView is the brain of your Mechatronics application and the drives and motors are your Mechatronics muscle.
