Has any one developed a VI for data input from a serial RS485 connection with S. Himmelstein 700 series signal conditioner. Multiple displays and channels. Labview 2009

Robert C,

This VI was tested using RS-232 port from a PC. It worked very well. This VI gets the current data values from three channels (CH1, CH2 and CH3) via ADC0 (command as torquimeter manual) and is stored in a string variable. The next step, separates the string in three numerical indicators.The commands must be uppercase. I hope have helped.

I would like to use this vi also. Can you save it in Version 9 and send to me. Thanks.

Hi 

I am using the same vi which you have suggested and i have selected proper com port and other settings, but i am not getting any data,but if i send "ADC0" and "*IDN?\n" command alternatively then it is giving the data...but if i do that i will get zero and data alternatively.I want to get data without zero in between.. any solutions on why i have to send *IDN?\n?

Hi ELNO, 

Do get more replies on your post, I would recommend starting a new forum question.  Could you also please verify the device you are using?  Thanks.
