Heidenhain ND-287 connect with VISA

For the case you are using an older LV version, here is the VI downgraded to LV2010.

Thanks a lot for all your help.

I just have one question, can you convert the "ND 287 sting to 2D array(LV2010).vi"  to a 2009 labview version?

I have just noticed that I attached the LV2012 version !

Here is it in LV8.

hej 

I still have a problem whit putting the receaving data to an array!

The way that the ND287 send his data is one by one. it only will remeber the last data thats been send!

Hello Poppe,

Can you share the code/VI you used for this test?

Thanks!

[JB]

Yes, please post your code. Do you still use NI's example ?

Your code must be adapted according to the way the ND 287 sends the data :

• all at once in response to one query
• one line for one query
• anything else ?

I guess the ND 287 adds a termination character at the end of each line. Is this correct ?

How must the transfer from the ND 287 to the PC be started :

• by pressing a button on the ND 287
• by sending a request over the serial bus ?

This shouldn't be difficult to implement but, because I don't have a ND 287, I need your info about the behaviour of this device to be able to help you efficiently.

I've already solved my problem.

Thank you for your time.

What do you mean with code/VI?

[ThiCop]

Just the VI's that you were using.

The only ones I found were the VI's without the correct parsing shown and the VI's provide by other people.
I didn't see one where they were both put together.

Can you share with us how you fixed the issue?

[Poppe]

Here is the Vi and the subvi.
