Hi guys, I am a beginner to labview. I am trying to know, how to communicate with a third party controller of a three axis cnc machine using labview. For eg if i start from a normal communication like asking for IDN etc there is no response always a time out error occurs, so basically I think the machine is not communicating. I have also read the manual of the controller, but there is no information regarding basic communication. The protocols involve all about what command is required to move a axis etc. Or is this how the protocols of a third party controller are normally and we have to start coding. I want to generally know whether can i communicate using labview with this 3 axis cnc machine or not._(stepper motor is used for movement) Please assist!

Hi, I'm facing the exact same issue you stated above.

Can I know how you solved it? Or can you provide an example VI that I can use?
