Unfortunately, you cannot do modbus serial communication with LabVIEW PDA 8.0.1. In oder to do Modbus communication you would need the Modbus Library, but that requires NI-VISA and NI-VISA is not supported in LabVIEW PDA until version 8.2. Aside from this, you can do regural serial communication with PDA 8.0.1 using the Serial Compatibility VI's.

For more information please refer to the following knowledgeBase articles:

Where did you see that VISA 4.2 worked in LV 8.0.1? Visa is only supported in LabVIEW PDA 8.2 and higher and you need VISA to do modbus communication.
