64 bit motion control ready now?

rscconrad,

There is no ETA on 64-bit motion at this time.  If you can architect your application to run with less than 4GB of ram you can certainly use the 32-bit versions of NI vision and motion.  Unfortunately if you absolutely need to use 64-bit LabVIEW you will not have access to NI Motion for the foreseeable future.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Hi Robert

I spoke with a friend of mine in systems engineering today about this one. What we currently have as an option is to run both a 64 bit app with vision and a 32 bit app with motion and use TCP/IP to communicate between the two. This will act down at the Kernal level. Our other option is to create a couple DLLs for the different motion functions you need and treat them like sub vi's in the 64 bit app. Let me know if either of these help out.
