Re: Labview servo programming

What are you trying, and what errors are you getting?

What do you want the servo to do?

How do you want to control what the servo does?

When do you want the servo to move?

Re: Labview servo programming

Errors are always accompanied with an error code and explanation. Posting these as well as screen shots of your code will be very beneficial to the community.

Re: Labview servo programming

The Servo moves the camera(I will picture it tomorrow).
The servo is autonomic so it moves by itself.
I need to know how to connect it with labview.
I will send you picture tomorrow.

Re: Labview servo programming

I don't understand your issue fully, but my suggestion would be to open the LV vision example for the gimbal mounted, servo controlled camera. There is one for single color tracking, and one for the pink/green target. They require that you have the driver station connected and enabled, that you have the digital side car connected to slot four and power, that you have the jumpers on the correct PWM channels, and that you set the panel servo IDs to match your X and Y ports used on the side car.

It is far more likely that you'll get this to work, then you can look at the diagram and compare to what you've been doing, including running them both with probes to compare how they operate.

Re: Labview servo programming

weve gotten the servos to move at a press of a button but, we when we press the button they move all the way. how do them to move at a smaller degree?

Use a smaller number as the set position, perhaps?
