Bronkhorst Mass Flow Controllers (MFC) can be operated in Labview use ASCII programing logic. I've been able to prove the my VI works by directly connecting my MFC to my computer and running it properly. The issue I'm encountering is having the MFC recognize the RS232 ports (NI-9870) I have on a module in my 9035 cRIO Chassis, likely because it is hooked up as a remote system to my main computer. To circumvent this I've also tried running the labview program directly on the Chassis, but am still receiving an error (-1073807339) at the VISA Read step, which in my case I've come to learn means that the computer isn't actually communicating with the MFC.
Does anyone have any experience getting any Bronkhorst or similar mass flow controllers to work on their NI cRIO Chassis?
