Your shutter status indicator is wired to the number of bytes written, not what the shutter is returning as a response.
You need to add a read function after your write to get the data returned by the shutter. Depending on how fast it responds, you may need to put a delay between the write and read operations.

I have tried that and attached the vi. Please have a look. This time I am getting write counts "5" and read counts "9", no matter if I keep the shutter open or closed. I applied a delay of 5000ms after the write buffer.

Hi,
sorry but it has been more that a year that I am not tweeking any VI, I am afraid I will not be able to help. I can send a the subVI I am using for my application, but it can only be more obscure as it has been modified and integrated in a huge Labview code. Let me know it you want it though.
Best

Hi Jeremy!
I have uploaded the 2011 version of the vi. The thorlab technical support is very nice and working on it but they nee bit longer time. Since I stuck for a while for this shutter, therefore I posted in the forum.
Thanks,

I have attached the vi from thorlabs. This will definitely solve the problem. You may customize it according to your application.

sorry I forgot to mention that you have set the baud rate to 9600, else it will not work. If you have further question please let me know.
