Does LabView support Hanna Instruments pH201 and/or Radiometer ION check 65 instruments?

If these devices have serial ports, USB ports, Ethernet ports, or a similar way of communicating with them, then the answer is probably "yes".

I would start by contacting the manufacturers and asking them if they already have LabVIEW drivers for these devices. If so, that will save you time.

If not, ask them if they have a programming manual. These devices probably just respond to simple messages through their communications ports, and you can use the VISA functions to send these messages and read their responses. If you have LabVIEW 7 or later, you can use the Instrument I/O Assistant to simplify this task.

I hope this helps.
