You should also check with the manufacturer to see if they provide some sort of software development kit. Usually, they will provide a shared library that can be called. On Windows this will be a DLL. You can call DLLs from LabVIEW using the Call Library Function Node, and there's a whole chapter in the LabVIEW Help on how to to this, as well as an example that ships with LabVIEW, as well as many Knowledge Base articles on the NI site. So, if they have a DLL, you should try to use that. Please do the research on calling DLLs first, andthen  post back with a specific question.

As the author of the nugget linked to I have to re-iterate that it's easier to try the DLL route first before getting bogged bown in USB communication.  USB is not very easy.
