Hello all, I am fairly new to LabVIEW and I wish to connect a Tescom ER5000 pressure regulator to my cRIO-9082. The regulator comes with a USB (Type A) cable for communication. I am using the vendor supplied USB-RS485 converter to connect it to the RS-485 port on the cRIO, but this has proven unsuccessful. The vendor also supplies LabVIEW sample code that I am using to test the connection. I cannot tell if the cRIO recognizes if anything is connected to the RS-485 port. I connected the regulator to my PC and it works there with no problems, but I need to connect it to cRIO. Is it possible to use the USB ports on the cRIO to communicate with the regulator? I've tried using VISA suite but have had no luck there. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Best solution is to install a RS-485 module in your RIO and use the simple serial driver using VISA to communicate with the ER5000.
