Re: seriemotor field polarity

Dear Basicmicro, That seems to be making sense. I defenitly want to try that. I would have to find out how much power the Field exactly requires i guess to get the maximum power out of the motor. Any idea if it makes a difference if i reverse the field winding or the rotor winding? Otherwise i just ...

seriemotor field polarity

Dear Basicmicro, I am looking for a roboclaw motordriver or a mcp driver to control a 1KW series motor. The thing is this is a drive motor, and it should go forward and reverse.

I can't seem to find the option in the roboclaw library in labview to request the adress of the driver. i got driver 1 with adress 129 and driver 2 with adr...

Re: Position PID labview

Thanks for the reaction Acidtech, that solution sounds usable indeed, i could request the adress, check if it matches, if not, it should try the other comport number and do the check again :D, and then it works, that sounds the best solution so i can move the labview program. I hope i get some time ...
