Maximum sampling rate with Encoder Phidgets

The end goal is that I want to be able capture data as quickly as possible with the encoder and voltage phidgets. I'm setting a stepper motor to run about 50 revolutions at 500RPM and collecting voltage data and the encoder position. Moving the stepper motor accurately to positions seems to work fin...

Higher voltage and Power Phidgets?

There's the 40V phidget, but it would be great if there was a 80V version of it. For controlling power, using the relays are great but it would be more ideal if they had a barrel jack input on one side connected to the common and the NO/NC on the other. that way it can help get around the need for a...

BrakingStrength on DC Motor Phidget

How exactly is braking implemented on the phidget? It looks like the braking strength is a value from 0 to 1 with it ramping based on the acceleration parameter. To my understanding, typically you would short both terminals of the motor to ground for hard braking. Does this parameter tie one of the ...

Compatibility with Voltage and Temp sensor with VINT?

I'm piecing together a project and have the motor controller, ADC, and current sensors working but as soon as I plug in the Temperature sensor the Voltage sensor doesn't seem to pull accurate data anymore. - VINT Hub Phidget (HUB0001_0) - DC Motor Phidget (DCC1000_0) - Voltage Input Phidget (VCP1000...
