I am trying to create a simple FlexLogger plugin that will open a serial port, read data from the port and then send it to flexlogger. My problem is twofold:
1. I am fairly new to LabView so I am still trying to wrap my head around some things.
2. Specifically, I have based the plugin on the data producing template for FlexLogger but I cannot understand how I cam open a serial port and then read data from it in the Process.vi? Is there an example of this, or can anyone point me in the right direction?
I have added a simple random number generator to the Process.vi template and I get random values for two channels the way I want in Flexlogger when I run the plugin. Now I want to move to getting real data from the serial port but I am completely stuck! Any help is appriciated!
