Greetings, I am unfortunately not familiar with the Chatillon TCd500. However, I can tell you that it is likely that you will need to install some drivers for the device or that at the very least it will be useful to do so. How are you hoping to physically connect to the device? USB? Serial? GPIB? I would suggest that you first attempt a simple VI that requests the identity of the device. Usually this will be a query along the lines of "*IDN?"   (without the quotation marks). Most devices will respond to this with a bit of information about what you've connected to, and its a great way to see if you've successfully connected or not. I hope this at least gets you started.
