Using COM 2 twice !

[Placebo]

I have a vi which successfully communicates with COM 2, and another vi which also successfully communicates with COM 2. I would like to run them both at the same time.

Can anyone tell me the best way to go about this please ?

Why don't you make one vi which will communicate with COM2...and send/receive data to the two vis ?

In general, I try to avoid simultaneously accessing the same hardware, but I understand it is possible:
