Serial Port Error

[vidya]

Hi,

I'm trying to interface a bluetooth device connected on a virtual serial port COM5 to my Computer using Labview 7.1. The device works well with Windows Hypeterminal but when I use the when I try to use the Labview "Basic_Serial_Write_and_Read" VI, I instantly get an error saying "Error -1073807202 occurred at Property Node in VISA Configure Serial Port (Instr).vi->Basic_Serial_Write_and_Read.vi". I made sure that no other program is accessing this error. Please let me know hw to solve with this problem.

Thanks,

Vidya

That error code means "VISA:  (Hex 0xBFFF009E) A code library required by VISA could not be located or loaded." That usually means that you haven't installed VISA. It's on your device driver CD or you can download the latest version from NI.
