Hi there,
I'm using a cRIO-9074 chassis and two NI 9501 stepper drives, which are each wired to a Superior Electric Slo-Syn motor. Currently, I am able to control each motor individually using two separate FPGA VIs. However, my goal is to be able to control both motors with only one FPGA VI. Essentially, I want to be able to control both motors at the same time
Would this be as simple as placing the block diagram from each FPGA VI into a single FPGA VI and building that? Perhaps using them as sub-VIs? I'm certainly not an expert and am somewhat new to FPGAs.
Below is a video that is somewhat similar to what I am trying to do if that helps. The major difference being is that he only uses 1 FPGA and another system on the second motor.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
