Hello Jrmzc,

 

I am wondering what exactly do you mean by Whirlpool WIDE.

It's a set of serial commands to communicate with Whirlpool devices, like washers and dryers.

 

I don´t know what WIDE stands for but I guess "W" stands for Whirlpool.

 

It maybe looks similar to CAN communication but in Whirlpool environment.

 

I´ve been trying to search for related information on the web and not much results yet.

Hello Juan,

 

I have been looking trough the commands, and I have not found any documentation related, what you might need is to get the commands directly from Whirlpool. What kind of bus do you need to communicate?

It's LABview, not LAUNDRYview!  Smiley Very Happy

 

Good luck finding pre-existing drivers for washing machines.  You never know so it's a good idea to ask but I think you're going to have to roll your own code for this app.  If you tackle the project please offer the package up for others to use.  Maybe LabVIEW will become a popular platform for smart home systems.
