FP2010 & FP1000 Serial Communication

Hi all:
I have a FP2010 and a FP1000, and I want my PC's serial ports free. FP2010 User Manual says that it's Serial Port "can be used" for communication with, for example FP1000, but it doesn't say how.

Can anyone help me, please? a link or an example would be very appreciated.

I have found the Optomux Examples very useful, I only need to communicate using FP2010's serial port.

Thanks,
Aitortxo.

Hi Aitortxo,

I've found this KB which says that you've to use the Optomux VI's. Please review the KB linked below for "more" informations:

This example could help too:

Thanks a lot, Luca for this quick and valuable post.

I have LV7, and the example in your 2nd link didn't work for me.

Anyway, I have taken a look to the VI and found PUBLISH DATA function.

There is an example in LabView that uses this block for what I need: "Publish LabVIEW Data Items (Server).vi". Now I can use an embedded program to communicate with my FP1000, and Publish Data function to make it available for my PC.

Thanks again, Aitortxo.
Aitortxo.
