PCI-7340 no drive to motors

Can get encoder signal fine,

control program appears to work - generates no errors.

However when I send a move command, there is no motion - the drives aren't under control (I can turn the drive shafts freely by hand).

 

Other signals (digital IO) seem to be fine.

 

Any tips?

Hey Richard,

Can you give me a bit more information about this? Have you enabled the motors? What sort of motors are you using? What are you using to control them?

 

Cheers,

  1. What type of driver (power stage) and motor do you use ?
  2. How is the driver connected to the PCI-7340 and to the motor ?
  3. How do you enable the driver ?
