Test Stand and MAX Settings

I am using test stand and Labview 7.1.  I used Express VIs to setup my RS232 communications in numerous VIs that I call from test stand for different types of tests.  I have the same product, but with different baud rates.  Is there a way in test stand to change the baud rate settings in MAX for Com1?  I tried to create a Labview program to do it, but once a sequence runs that has the Express VI I/O Control it must start a new VISA session and I loose what was set up and it reverts back to the MAX settings for Com1.  The only time The VISA setup vi I created appears to work is when I converted an Express VI (or opened the Express VI's front panel).  And messed with the code.

Hi,

What do you mean "And messed with the code"?

I just added a constant for the Visa input (Com1) and set a couple strings I wanted set.

Hey,

I would suggest using the VISA Configure Serial Port to configure the port and then calling the Express VI using the VISA Resource Name Out from the configure VI.
