-The host must be equipped with a data acquisition plug-in board. A maxon motor controller (50V / 5A) delivers the necessary power. +  
 +We use a regular PC (x86-64) together with a National Instrument card: PCIe 6251 (M-Series). The card requires the //comedi// library together with the EEROS hardware wrapper, see [[eeros_architecture:hal:hardware_libraries#comedi|]]. In any case you have to install ''comedi'' separately.

-IMPORTANT On the beaglebone blue board, you don't need a motor controller. Hence, you do not need the enable signal. Tie the ready signal to logic one.+
