i started to work with labview newly, the task im tryin to do is the following : i have a microcontroller and i wanna know if it is alive or not .. simply am tryin to open a port (com) and to ping the microcontroller using the functions (.dll provided).
as it could be seen from the attached file i have tow functions, the first opens a port (to the microcontroller) and returns a handle to the second function which pings the module (microcontroller). i tried to see if the functions return something but it looks like they don't.
am really stuck, i tried to read some manules but i didnt get what i want out of them!!
in all cases thx in advance .

i did not write but i know how the way it behaves and i could give a short description about the mentioned functions :
the first one wimod_open has the following protype : handle alxmod_open(char *comPort) ... the handle is to be considered as unsigned long. comPort for example COM1.
the second one is wimod_ping : bool alxmod_ping(handle x).
hope it gives u some overview of what i have.
