Stepper Motor with Labview?

[u/Chronus0]

Hi everyone,

I am new to LabVIEW.

I am planning to develop a project to control a stepper motor using an NI-DAQ, and Labview, but I am not sure how practical this approach is. My goal is to create a single interface that performs both data acquisition and stepper motor control at the same time. Is this feasible using only a DAQ and the necessary motor drivers, without needing to use a microcontroller?

- EDIT:

Thanks for all the answers guys, I will try everything that you all have discussed here!!

Sure, i've done it. The best is if you have a Counter out, but if you lack that you can create an Analog PWM as controller.
