I am looking for some information on ELAN protocol for Siemens analyzers and also some information on AK protocol for California Analytical Analyzers. Mainly I need a starting point to communicate with these devices for labview.

Kryzsztof and Nico,

Sorry it took me so long to reply, I have been out of the office.  I sent you both an email reply with a zip archive attached.  I hope you find it useful.

Best regards,

Dave

David,

Thanks for the files! My coleague, who is more familiar with LabView will try to set up communication with Siemens analizers - I hope we will be able now to build our measurements systems witout additional A/D converters. I will inform you, about the result.

Thanks for your help,

Krzysztof

Hi David

I am currently working on project that requires communication with Ultramat 23, could you send me your ELAN codes to me at hasilscan@yahoo.com please.

Thanks.

Dave,

            I am faced with the same dilema. I have a siemens analyzer and need to communicate via the ELAN port. I have searched everywhere and you may be the only source. I would be very grateful if you could also send me a copy of your VI to huntsteve85@gmail.com

Hi Dave,

Would you be willing to send me a copy of your AK Protocol example code?  I'm trying to interface with a California Instruments Gas Analyzer and they only provide the basic protocol definition documentation.  It would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
