stepper drivers for LIFA

[mudithadias]

Hi ,

Could I please know what stepper drivers are compatible with labVIEW interface for arduino (LIFA)? I know the easy driver and the big easy driver work. Are there any other suitable stepper drivers? Can we use a L6470? Thanks in advance.

National Instruments does not have any specific drivers that communicate with the drivers that you mentioned.  However, most stepper motor drives move using step and direction commands.  If you wish to control the dirve with LabVIEW you will more than likely need a DAQ device perhaps a USB-6008 or USB-6009 so that you can use labVIEW to generate the control i/o.  This Example includes code to generate step and direction signals using sw timing on a National Instruments data acquisition device.
