Banana C and D on the breadboard. Attach the mini-hooks to the VCURR+ and AGND test<br />
points on the Power Amplifier. Finally, connect the tachometer to Banana A and B using<br />
banana leads.<br />
3. Make the following jumpers on the Elvis prototyping board:<br />
• DAC0→BNC1+ GND→BNC1-<br />
• DAC1→Oscilloscope - Trigger<br />
• Banana A→ACH0+ Banana B→ACH0-<br />
• Banana C→ACH1+ Banana D→ACH1-<br />

4. Lock the motor shaft so that you can measure the electrical time constant. Use the screw<br />
provided to lock the shaft in place.<br />
5. Create test and triggering waveforms as illustrated below using the Waveform Editor. The<br />
triggering waveform will be used to trigger the oscilloscope slightly before the rising-edge on<br />
the test waveform, which will be applied to the motor through the power amplifier. The test<br />
waveform amplitude is 0.5 V in order to produce a 1 V output from the power amplifier.<br />
Triggering waveform, 5V amplitude<br />

a. Open the Arbitrary Waveform Generator SFP in ELVIS, then select the Waveform Editor<br />
key and make the following settings on the Waveform Editor:<br />
• Units: Hz<br />
• Sample Rate: 10000.0<br />
• Segment duration to 2 sec.<br />
b. First create a test waveform that has peak amplitude of 0.5V. Select the New Component<br />
key to add a component. Make the following settings for this component:<br />
• Function Library: Square.<br />
• Amplitude: 0.25 V<br />
• Offset: 0.25 V<br />
