Hello,
I am trying to program a Newport SMC100PP controller to run a Newport TRA6PPD linear actuator to move a Newport 481 rotation stage.
My goal with this program is to have the stage move at a slow velocity form designated point 1 to point 2 while reading out the absolute position.
The program that i have written is having a problem. Every time i try and run the program i get an "Error on reset - Timeout" error and the light on the front panel of the SMC100pp controller reads solid green as if the system is ready to go.
In the code below i have the top part which simply reads the motor position and time and saves that to a txt file. The top part is necessary because it is a reduced set of code for the rest of an instrument i want to incorporate this rotation stage into. The bottom code is my program where i am trying to 1st initialize the step motor, 2nd enter/modify controller velocity on command part way through a larger experiment once i see some preliminary data and 3rd execute the programed controller movement on command as the last part of a larger experiment to finish the experiment.
Included below is my labview error message, picture of the program and the program vi.
