Hi - Thanks for the response ...
What I meant was that the power is conncted to the 7i30 motor power connector and it is turned on. The +5V for the encoders comes from the 50 pin connector and that is why the encoders will always have power. So yes the power to the motors is on but the PWM signal is not going to the motors or is too low. Also for testing purposes I have the 7i30 set to the 1A max. setting. As Peter mentioned in his response, 12V might be too low, I will try with 30V but I am affraid the results will not be too diffrent. I suspect there is an issue with the INI file (I am using the default one for now). I've been reading the HAL docs and there are some things that I will look at when I get back to my lab later. Something about setting OUTPUT SCALE for PWM drives. I still don't get why halscope won't register a signal greated that 1V/div if I have MAX_OUTPUT set to 10 ?
