I have digital scales, with usual RS-232 interface. It is connected to one of my com ports in the PC. How do I configure LabVIEW to read data from it? I can seem to define a virtual channel since the only input I get is my PCI-6024E card.

Doesn't standard "Serial Port Read" do the trick ? Functions toolbox-->Serial. Another way would be to access the port by "In port" (Functions-->Advanced-->Memory). You simply give the address of the port there and it works.
