This paper presents a speed control of AC servo system using LabVIEW program and cRIO (Compact RIO)hardware which is a real-time controller made in National Instruments company. LabVIEW is a GUI programming language easy to implement control system and cRIO is a reconfigurable hardware platform which is very simple. Therefore Lab VIEW and cRIO will be excellent tools to design and implement control system.

This paper presents a controller implementation using model based controller design programs-System Identification Toolkit, Control Design Toolkit, Simulation module. This method is easier and simpler than conventional controller design method. To implement speed control system of DC motor, a CompactRIO, Real-Time(RT) cntroller provided by NI(National Instruments), is used as hardware equipment. Firstly transfer function of DC motor drive system, which was a control target plant, can be acquired through System Identification Toolkit by using test input signal applied to motor and output signal from motor. And designing of pole-zero compensator satisfying desired control response performance through Control Design Toolkit, designed speed control response can be tested through Simulation Module. Finally LabVIEW program is converted to real-time program and downloaded to CompactRIO real-time controller Through experimental results to real DC motor drive system, designed speed control response is compared to simulation results.

This paper introduces step by step procedures for the fabrication and operation of an embedded solar tracker. The system presented consists of application software, compactRIO, C-series interface module, analogue input module, step drive, step motor, feedback devices and other accessories to support its functional stability. CompactRIO that has a real-tim processor allows the solar tracker to be a stand-alone real time system which operates automatically without any external control. An astronomical method and an optical method were used for a high-precision solar tracker. CdS sensors are used to constantly generate feedback signals to the controller, which allow a solar tracker to track the sun even under adverse conditions. The database of solar position and sunrise and sunset time was compared with those of those of the Astronomical Applications Department of the U.S. Naval Observatory. The results presented here clearly demonstrate the high-accuracy of the present system in solar tracking, which are applicable to many existing solar systems.

본 논문에서는 모델기반의 제어기 설계 프로그램인 National Instruments(NI)사의 System Identification Toolkit과 Control Design Toolkit, Simulation module을 사용하여 기존의 제어기 설계방식 보다 쉽고 편리하게 제어기를 설계할 수 있었다. 직류전동기의 속도 제어시스템을 구현하기 위해서 하드웨어는 NI사에서 제공하는 실시간 제어기(Real-Time Controller:RT) CompactRIO를 사용하였다. 먼저는, 테스트 입력 신호를 전동기에 인가하고 얻은 출력신호를 통해 제어대상 플랜트인 직류전동기 구동시스템의 전달함수를 구할 수 있었다. 다음으로는 원하는 제어응답성능을 갖는 극점, 영점 제어기를 설계한 후, 모의실험을 통해 속도제어응답을 확인할 수 있었고, 실시간프로그램으로 다운로드하여 실제 전동기 구동시스템의 실험을 통해서 설계된 속도제어기의 응답 결과를 모의실험과 비교하여 검증하였다.

This paper proposes a method to develop a high-precision dimension measurement system using a linear variable differential transformer sensor. The Dimension targets for measurement is carbon material vanes of key element in the rotating parts within vehicle circulating pump. Data acquisition system for dimension measurement is designed using the NI Compact RIO. And the program applying the dimension measurement algorithm is built using NI LabVIEW. The dimension measuring program is composed of a FPGA program, Real Time program and Host program. The method of the experiment compares master vane with target vane for measure the length of the carbon material vane. The experimental results confirmed the usefulness of the accuracy within ${\pm}4um$.

Active vibration control methods are required in the high speed rotor systems supported by magnetic bearings. A prediction control technique is one of the control methods. Gain and phase angle are primarily chosen with analyzing the responses for a certain rotor speed. The feasibility of this technique has been reported for only analytical simulations. Therefore this paper constructs the test rig supported by ball bearings with a magnetic bearing type actuator and develops a prediction control system by using LabVIEW and Compact RIO. Finally as rotating speeds are modulated, the gains and phase angles for the speeds are determined with vibration control of the test rig. This leads that the prediction control technique may be applied to the rotor system with the magnetic bearing.
