Hi,

I want set stop bit 1or 0 for special use for PC communication with one istrument via serial com port ,

it's possible to do like that in labVIEW to control com port ?

and how to read this information (stop bit or parity bit)

Thanks in advance!

David,

you can set all serial port parameters with VISA Configure Serial Port (Instr).vi which is used in all serial port examples that ship with LabVIEW. Here is a screenshot of the blockdiagram of this vi:



As you can see, the parameters are set with a property node. You can also use a property node to read these parameters.

Please note: Please ask this type of question in the Instrument Control forum and not in the Profibus forum. Chances are much better to get a quick answer for this type of questions there.
