Hi guys. I've been up and down this forum for a while now, but I still couldn't find what I was looking for. I have a 3508 eurotherm and I got the drivers from the NI driver website. The driver itself is fine, it even comes with couple of examples. The problem is this, I CANNOT FIND a VI within the driver that allows me to modify the selected segment. The 24xx driver is similar but comes with a VI called "ET24XX Configure OP Program Segment Parameters.vi". With this VI you can select a program (i.e. program 3) and select a segment (i.e.segment 2), and then make changes to that segment. I don't know WHICH VI in the 35xx driver allows me to set those parameters, or maybe a combination of VI's. There's a simple example of how to make a simple program manually using the 3508 module. this example is on the 3508 manual (27 pages I think), and its shows a program with 4 segments where the 1st segments starts as Rate, then Dwell... and the last one is End (as it should be) and it gives a graphical representation of the program, I was trying to replicate this program using labview drivers but I just don't know which VI's I should use (combine) to replicate the same program. It might be something simple but I just can't see it. I know some people comunicate through ModBus (MD), but I'm pressed for time here and I was hoping that those VI's incuded within the driver should do everything I wanted it too (provided I link and combine them properly). If anyone has managed to make the previously mentioned example usgin 35xx drivers then please let me know how. Thanks Kas

Thanks, but i found this function in itools. It's called "Verify against clone file" works fine, i can compare configs from my 3504's with ".uic" backups. Maybe helpful for someone like me 🙂 Good luck to everyone who reads this message! 🙂
