VISA Menu

[AlSheikh]

Hi,

I made a project using VISA read&write every thing is okay, but when I build it on PDA device ( I-mate  pocket pc 2003) the menu of VISA (ports) doesn't appear so I should return back then change it to constant and fix the no. of the port used then build it again to PDA , when I already choose the port no. by constant the program is fine. but I can't change the port no. ,  How can I let the VISA menu appear.   On PC Program I put it as Control and I can see it, but when download on PDA it disappears.

Any help??????

Hi,

Are you using the VISA Resource Name Control?  While you can add this to the front panel of a PDA VI, this control is not visible when you deploy the application to the PDA.  This is documented in the VISA Resource Name Controls (PDA Module, Touch Panel Module) in the LabVIEW Help.  You will need to use a string control and use the VISA Find Resource function to get the ports on your PDA.

Sorry, I saw it and read it but I couldn't use it.  I don't understand how to use it.

Can you help me by example or simple steps ?
