Automatically Running an Onboard Program Every Time NI-Motion Controller Powers UpPrimary Software: Driver Software>>NI-Motion/FlexMotionPrimary Software Version: 6.1.2 Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A Secondary Software: N/A Hardware: Motion Control>>Controllers
Problem: I developed an onboard program and I'd like to have it run automatically when my NI-Motion controller powers up. How can I do this? Solution: Enable Auto Start VI (flex_enable_auto_start) allows you to automatically run a program when the controller powers up. The Enable Auto Start VI configures the controller to automatically start an onboard program on power up. Once auto start is enabled, the controller automatically executes the onboard program specified whenever the controller is powered on. To setup your motion controller so that it will automatically run when powering up, the onboard program to be executed should be saved to FLASH using the Object Memory Management VI before the controller is powered down. If the controller does not find a valid program that it can load, NIMC_autoStartFailedError is generated. If the onboard program is removed from FLASH memory, the auto start functionality is disabled. Related Links: National Instruments Motion Control Support Homepage Attachments:
