Motion I/O VIs

NI-Motion VI

Motion I/O VIs

You can use Motion I/O VIs to set up and control the motion I/O features of the NI motion controller. Motion I/O VIs include VIs to set polarity and enable limit and home inputs, high-speed capture inputs and inhibit outputs, VIs to configure and control breakpoint outputs, and VIs to read the status of all the motion I/O signals, high-speed captured position, and software limit status.

All of the dedicated motion I/O also can function as general-purpose digital I/O when they are not being used for their motion specific features. You can set and reset outputs, you can read inputs at any time, and you can set and change their polarity as required.

Motion I/O VIs include limits and other basic Motion I/O VIs, Breakpoint VIs, and High-Speed Capture VIs.
