Nucleo-F303RE Interfaced with LabVIEW

[jmbats]

Hi,

Good day!

I am proposing a project that needs communication between the LabVIEW and Nucleo-F303RE board. I want that LabVIEW will send data to the nucleo board and then the nucleo will have to do something with the received data (say, for example, when the data is received, a LED is turned on). Anyone knows how can I proceed with this? Should I be using the NI VISA  VI for this? If someone happens to have worked with this with LabVIEW 2016 and later, can you share your code for both the f303RE and LabVIEW if it is okay? Thank you very much.

So no one answered your question, huh? That sucks... I have the same question, different Nucleo...

Hi Ryan,

the Nucleo board seems very similar to an Arduino, and also offers a virtual COM port. Use VISA functions to communicate from LabVIEW/PC to Nucleo...

I have a similar question.

I am using a STM 32 Nucleo L467RG and I would like to pass data back and forth between them. I would like a virtual button on LabView to trigger the STM32 to perform an action. Then I would like the STM32 to report back what it has done. I would like to do this in a similar way as SPI, UART, or I2C is done. Code will be written and uploaded to the STM32 and LabView will not alter this code - just interface with the IO. 

Any Suggestions? I've heard about VISA, but in the few minutes of reading on it I'm still not sure this will fulfill the task. Is extra HW required? The USB-8452 is very expensive... If there was a way to do it via the onboard USB (STLINK, FTDI, USB OTG) that would be ideal. 

Best,

Hi Ryan,

Arduino brings a VCP (virtual COM port), and I guess the Nucleo brings it too.

Use that!
