Materials Testing Machine

Hi! Has anyone ever tried to hook up to a Lloyd's LRX Materials Testing Machine
using a RS232 interface to control the MTM through LabView? Please let me
know.

Hi bhenry,

Since Erik's question was posted about 5 years ago, I'm not sure he's still watching the thread. Using VISA VI's in LabVIEW, it is pretty simple to send serial commands over RS-232. It is just a matter of congiguring the resource and performing writes and reads. LabVIEW ships with a few example programs for serial communication that demonstrate how this is done. As far as specific commands to control Lloyd's LRX Materials Testing Machine, you might try their website for any support info.

Good luck,
