Com port and device setup menu

[buddyfares]

Is there a good way to have a setup menu for comport and other instruments?  I am trying to avoid having them on the front panel of the main application.  It could be a pull down or popup.  I have 5 or 6 devices that are on comports or have visa resources assigned to them through Max.  I would need to select comport or visa resource, baud rate.....  for the devices.  I now have a cluster on the front panel with this.

Sure.  You could have a button on the front panel, or a menu item that would call a subVI that pops up like a dialog to enter the information.

I store all of my instrument settings in a configuration file and read it on startup.  If something changes, you just update that configuration file before starting the application.
