4 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTSRequired SoftwareMake sure LabVIEW™ is installed with the following required add-ons:1. LabVIEW™2. NI-DAQmx3. NI LabVIEW™ Control Design and Simulation Module4. NI LabVIEW™ MathScript RT Module5. Quanser Rapid Control Prototyping ToolkitrNote: Make sure the Quanser Rapid Control Prototyping (RCP) Toolkit is installed after LabVIEW. See the RCPToolkit Quick Start Guide for more information.Required Hardware• Data acquisition (DAQ) device with four encoder inputs and that is compatible with Quanser Rapid ControlPrototyping Toolkitr. This includes Quanser DAQ boards such as Q8-USB, QPID, and QPIDe and someNational Instruments DAQ devices.• Quanser 3 DOF Gyroscope• Quanser AMPAQ-L4 power amplifier, or equivalent.Before Starting LabBefore you begin this laboratory make sure:• LabVIEW™ is installed on your PC.• DAQ device has been successfully tested (e.g., using the test software in the Quick Start Guide or the AnalogLoopback Demo).• 3 DOF Gyroscope and amplifier are connected to your DAQ board as described its User Manual [2].3D GYRO Laboratory Guide v 1.1
