You can calculate the maximum velocity with the following equation:
where Vmax = 20 MHz for servos
8 MHz for steppers on a NI 7350 controller
4 MHz for steppers on a NI 7330, NI 7340, or NI 7390
motion controller
and is constrained by acceleration/deceleration according to the following
equation:
velocity
≤ (65,536 × deceleration) – acceleration
where velocity is in counts/sample and acceleration and deceleration are in
counts/sample
2 .
NI 73xx Acceleration in Counts/s 2
Acceleration and deceleration values are converted to an internal
16.16 fixed-point format in units of counts/s
2 before being used by the
trajectory generator.
Table 4-2 shows the minimum and maximum acceleration update rates in
counts/sec
2 .
