Sounds like you're looking for the Phidget Manager. It will detect any Phidgets that are connected and disconnected from your PC (and network, if configured). https://www.phidgets.com/docs/Phidget_Manager You can check the Hello World examples from the Code Samples page for an example of how to use ...

OUT1000 has been sped up to have a turnaround time of 2-3ms.

We've looked into it, and it looks like there is indeed headroom to get VCP1002 to go faster, with an expected new minimum interval between 10-20ms. Expect an update in the coming weeks.

To measure 2kg on a 500kg load cell, you are using 0.4% of its full scale range. This would be equivalent to trying to accurately measure weights up to 20g on a 5kg load cell. Possible? Technically, but you're approaching the point where many other small effects could skew the results significantly ...

MOT0109 and MOT1102 are your real options if you want orientation calculated for you.

MOT0109 features temperature compensation and more accurate sensors for applications that need them, but it sounds like the MOT1102 should be good enough for your purposes.

Which Spatial 3/3/3 are you looking at? The ones with AHRS support will give you a tilt-compensated Heading from the algorithmData outlet, alongside Pitch and Roll. If all you need is an attitude-adjusted compass, I'd recommend going with an MOT1102 (which needs a VINT Hub, but still comes out cheap...

That actually sounds a lot like a crash related to the compass calibration program itself that we fixed a while ago, where the program would crash if the calibration took too long. Try updating you control panel (and by extension the compass calibrator) to the latest version, and let us know if that...

Thank you for your suggestions for potential improvements, we will take these into consideration. I was unable to replicate your results in-house. The motor I used moves with the same degree of accuracy regardless of direction. Is there some mechanical loading on your system that's stronger in one d...

Rescale factor indeed does not affect the PID parameters. If you repeat those motions 5-10 times, do you see the same results each time? If I'm reading your example image correctly, it appears you are trying to move the motor a short distance (25 counts) very, very quickly. In this case, there may n...

While there is no "Motion Complete" event, you could potentially use the PositionChange event to check whether your motor is near the target position and set a flag from there, moving the bulk of the comparison out of your main loop.
