Performing Concurrent Serial VISA Read and Write in Parallel Loops

[APena]

Functional Description

This example illustrates how to write to and read from a serial device concurrently in parallel loops. This uses a single VISA Configure Serial Port VI and then branches into two parallel loops that write and read.

Caveats and Additional Notes

Make sure to adjust the serial port configuration settings accordingly and to use the correct termination character for your device. If you would like an example of how to do this with using two VISA Open VIs to create two duplicate VISA sessions, see the attached example Two_VISA_Open_LV86.vi.

It not works.

Excellent example of Serial Port Read and Write.

I tried out the Two VISA Open VI - it's great!  I went a step further and separated the two functions (Read & Write) into two separate VIs, and Hooray!  its works!  Thanks for the idea.
