So, on which com port is your device connected?

[Vidocq]

com 1 is the slot I used but I can't find on Labview at the sametime on arduine I already can select the port

Hi, Check in NI MAX. It must detect over there in Devices and interfaces

Have you already installed the NI VISA driver from the link below?

This makes me think you are running Arduino IDE at the same time as LabVIEW, and the hardware might be locked by the software.  If LabVIEW is the only thing running, does it see your COM port?  Did you try reinstalling or repairing NI-VISA?
