Having another serial port open ?

[DavePW]

Hi folks....

Question - Currently have a LIFA based application runing on my Arduino Uno - Its actually a temperature monitor. What I would like to do is add some further functionality to this in terms of having a RS232 port monitor function working aswell. So my question is - is it possible to have a VI that monitors a further RS232 port in addition to the Arduino?

cheers

You should be able to use as many serial ports as you want.  What happens when you try it?

Haven't tried it yet Nathan.

I was a little worried about running two concurrent functions - The datalogger and the serial stream logger...

I'll put it together and let you know..
