Paroscientific Model 6015A Pressure Transmitter RS 232 Communication Issue

Im trying to use LabView to communicate to the Paroscientific Model 6015A pressure transmitter.  Im using the basic serial write and read structure with a 500 mSec delay in between.  When I send a request for pressure (*0100P3) I dont get a response from the device.  If I use the the Paroscientifc software it works fine.  Any tricks to getting the LabView software to communicate?

Are you sending any needed termination characters with your command in LabVIEW such as carriage return and/or linefeed?  With your string constant or control showing the command with \codes display, make sure there is a \r\n at the end of the command.

Sorry for the communications lag, but I just saw this thread today, 10/23/2019.

I've included a VI I wrote 9 years ago for just this purpose; communicating with a Paroscientific pressure transducer
