I'm currently only 'writing' and not 'reading' from labview. As many others will benefit!Thanks,Chuck. You can depend on the fact that the echoed response will have the same number of characters as the command sent.If you are successful in 'stripping off' the response.
I don't know how this is done with Labview, but I have heard it is possible to do. The only way to 'eliminate' the command being echoed back with the response(using ECHOOFF) is to have each motor on it's own serial port(no daisy-chain).If your application can not have each motor on a separate serial port, you must be able to 'strip off' the response characters. The ECHO must be enabled for the daisy-chain to function. Motor 2 on the chain stopped getting commands even when addressed properly (I dont know a lot about ECHO, what iit means, how it's meant to be used, where in the code are you supposed to write it etc.)This forum has been really helpful until now.It would be great if someone could please help me with this. What do I do to get only the position in the buffer? I tried using the ECHOOFF but that didn't help instead, as soon as I wrote ECHOOFF just before RPA to read position, my daisy chaini stopped working i.e. But my major problem is reading the position of the motor!I got to know that there has to be some delay between the 'read' command and actually reading the valueso, I have the following problems:1) How can I read position in realtime?2) When I give the read command in 'visa write' and then after a delay, I use 'visa read' to read, I get all my commands sent back through the buffer and then, at the end, there's the value of position. I have a couple of animatics smartmotors (sm23165d) daisy-chained.I successfully connected them to Labview using an RS232 serial port connection with the help of this forum! Thank youI can write commands to the motor in realtime using labview now.
