How to use "VISA Wait on Event" to Read data from serial port as it arrives via RS232

[Joe]

Hi,

I'm trying to use "VISA Wait on Event" to Read data from serial port as
it arrives via RS232. Does anyone know how to setup the "VISA Wait on
Event"? What event type should I put?

Thanks

Use the Select Event Type control (on the Event Handling palette) and select Serial-Character. Instead of the event, I just usually use the VISA Bytes at Serail Port and do a read when bytes are greater than 0.
