Hi,

 

You may be able to do it if you are strong enough to re-write a driver for your USB to Serial converter.

 

You can use the VISA USB functions to do so, but I am not sure that they are RT compatible.

 

Have a look at this page : USB Instrument Control Tutorial and this one : USB Nugget by Intaris.

 

Regards,

Da Helmut
