Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB is an integrated DC-servo motor experiment. It is designed to help teach fundamental control concepts and theories on an easy-to-use and intuitive platform. For more information, visit the Quanser website for the Quanser QUBE-SERVO.

The RCP Toolkit driver name for this card is qube_servo_usb .

Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB

The features of the Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB are:

This single board integration enables you to turn your PC into a powerful Desktop Control Station.

Clocks

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB supports one hardware clock: HARDWARE_CLOCK_0 (0). This clock is generally used as a hardware timebase using one of the HIL Timebase VIs. The HARDWARE_CLOCK_0 clock may be used to generate timebases up to 1 kHz when the normal update rate is selected in the board-specific options, or up to 8 kHz when the fast update rate is selected.

Analog Inputs

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB card does not support analog inputs.

Analog Outputs

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB supports two 12-bit single-ended analog outputs with a ±15V range. Hence analog channel numbers may range between 0 and 1 inclusive.

In order to have analog outputs set to a particular voltage when the block diagram is run or stopped, the analog outputs must be configured on the HIL Initialize VI's Analog Outputs tab.

Once the analog output ranges have been configured, set the Initial analog outputs and Final analog outputs to the desired voltages.

Warning

The analog outputs can source up to 2A of current and maintain 1A .

Digital Inputs

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB card does not support digital inputs.

Digital Outputs

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB card does not support digital outputs.

Encoder Inputs

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB supports two quadrature encoder inputs with 16-bit count values. Hence encoder channel numbers range from 0 to 1.

PWM Outputs

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB card does not support PWM outputs.

Other Inputs

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB card does not support other inputs.

Other Outputs

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB card does not support other outputs.

Interrupts

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB card, or its driver, does not support any interrupt sources.

Watchdog

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB card does not support a watchdog timer.

Board-Specific Options

The Quanser QUBE-SERVO-USB card does not support any board-specific options.
