VI Compatibility

[JoaoBorges]

I have been using the functions INPORT and OUTPORT in my programs, to set some voltage levels in the serial port. The problem is that now I need my programs to run in Windows 2000 and NT. Is there a fast solution to make register writes in those operating systems?

Two possibilities:

(1) upgrade to LabVIEW 7 Express. The in/out port will work fine as long as you're within the I/O memory Range of the computer.


(2) Download accessHW.zip from HERE.

Besides AccessHW, if you want to control something like DTR or RTS, VISA and the old serial driver gives you this capability with using inport/outport.
