Arduino Serial Communication - I am not able to view the complete string!

[BhargavRJ]

Here I am not able to read the complete string. My string is 44 character long from arduino. But whenever I run the program the length I observe is random but never 44

Front Panel

Where it can be seen that length of the string is not 44.

DO NOT USE THE BYTES AT PORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (still not enough emphasis)

Simply put, just tell the VISA Read to read more bytes than you expect in a message.  In this case, I would probably use 100 just to be safe.  With the termination character enabled, the read will end when the Line Feed (by default) is read.
