Re: Controlling a stepper motor with LabVIEW?

I have done a few applications which controlled a steppers in the past, where labview served as the motion control and interface to a stepper motor system. 
 
 
Does anyone have a good program or suggestion on how to start making a program to control a series of stepper motors through a Anaheim Automation controller that has three axis?
 
I have looked at the site and I cant really find much on how to start--does anyone recommend a good basic labview starting point?
 
I know that I have motioncontrol and labview 7. I know that the hardware is complete and works well, but I have no idea how to control it through labview...
 
Would i want to use a VISA or something?
 
Thanks,
