Error 5003 Arduino with LINX synchronize.vi error

[bcarpiz]

I keep running into this error relating to the connection with LINX device. When I look into the VISA test panel, I also get an error with the port connection:

"VISA: (Hex 0xBFFF001D) The specified attribute is not defined or supported by the referenced resource". 

I'm not sure if these are related to one another and i'm not sure how to fix these errors.

Error 5003 is a catch all error that is generated in the LabVIEW layer of the Linx Toolkit whenever an error occurres in the underlaying drivers. The LINX Synchronize.vi is the first message exchanged between both sides after opening a connectoin. It is an empty message and simply meant to establish that any data can be exchanged between both sides.

So this tells us that the Opening of the serial port to the Arduino worked but when Linx then tries to talk to the Linx device implementation on the Arduino nobody seems to answer. This would most likely hint to the fact that you have not installed the Linx firmware onto your Arduino.
