Serial Read Write with Porter CM-400

[jayshih]

Hi all,

I am new to LabVIEW, but have been the assigned the task of automating one of our controllers.

I have this guide on how to go about doing this, but am not sure how to do this on LabVIEW. I have attached it here as well as the basic serial read/write vi that I found on the example code website on NI. Any help on where to get started would be much appreciated. As of now, I have the cord connected, but am not able to write/read a string based on what is happening. Thanks!!

Hello,

Everything is clear in your attached User Guide how to establish communication including Serial port settings. Also which data to be sent and responses for sent data given in the manual.

You just configure your serial port using the settings as per User Guide and then using VISA write and read functions, communicate with your serial device.

If any issues let me know.

Regards,
