* RELEASE NOTES *



NI LabVIEW software and the LabVIEW NI

SoftMotion Module deliver graphical

development for custom motion control

applications. With LabVIEW NI

SoftMotion, you can use the LabVIEW

project to configure all of your

motion axis settings, test your

configuration, and tune your motors

When your hardware configuration is

complete, you can use an interactive

test panel to validate your

configuration and move individual axes

to verify the hardware setup



LabVIEW NI SoftMotion offers the

convenience of programming your motion

profiles with a high-level function

block API based on the Motion Control

Library defined by PLCopen including

function blocks for straight-line

arc, and contoured move types as well

as function blocks for advanced

operations like electronic gearing and

camming. LabVIEW NI SoftMotion also

features advanced functions for custom

motion application design including

trajectory generation, spline

interpolation, position and velocity

control, and encoder implementation

By combining LabVIEW NI SoftMotion

with the new NI C Series drive

interface modules for CompactRIO, you

can take advantage of the RIO Scan

Interface for simplified application

development for single-axis and

multiaxis coordinated motion. For

applications that require

functionality or features that are not

available with the C Series drive

interface modules, LabVIEW NI

SoftMotion provides axis interface

nodes, which you can use to create

custom motion applications that add

speci

alized I/O or customized control

algorithms



In addition, LabVIEW NI SoftMotion

enables digital prototyping for motion

applications and machine design by

connecting to the SolidWorks Premium

3D CAD design application. With NI

SoftMotion for SolidWorks, National

Instruments releases a pioneer version

of software for simulating your

designs created in SolidWorks using

actual motion profiles developed with

NI SoftMotion function blocks. Because

of this, you can visualize and

optimize the design and evaluate

different design concepts before

incurring the cost of physical

prototypes
