Problem in receiving data from Xbee in LabVIEW

Hello, 

We are working on our project in which we transmit readings of a photo diode using a set of zigbee and arduino, during reception of data the Xbee is connected to pin 0 and 1(rx. and tx. ) of arduino. We can't interface it and view the readings on labview. We tried using VISA for serial communication but there is some flaw and it can't seem to receive the readings.lb.PNG

Pins 0 and 1 of the Arduino are connected to the USB communication lines. You can't communicate on both at the same time.

 

"On Uno, Nano, Mini, and Mega, pins 0 and 1 are used for communication with the computer. Connecting anything to these pins can interfere with that communication, including causing failed uploads to the board."

You can set up other pins to be used as serial communications using the SoftwareSerial library.
