NI DAQmx and VISA

Hello,


I want to test working of 5 drivers using labview.i am using NI PXI 6251 and 6509 for generating and receiving signals.At a time i will use one of these(6251 or 6509) to communicate with a microcontroller.I want to devolope it like follows.
It should have a main VI in which 5 buttons are present.Testing of each driver starts with the press of the corresponding button.when a button is pressed a serial  indication will be given to the microcontroller and it will do the necessary operations on the microcontroller side using some api's.After that microcontroller will send the O/P to the vi .Then at the vi side some comparisons for checking the reslut will be done and result is displayed.

Now coming to my questions

1.I am trying to send the serial commands using serial VI's.IS it correct to do like that?(serial command is the process name .It consists of a string).i want to use the serial port of PC for that
2.when using the NI 6251 and 6509 for generating signals and for getting i/p from microcontroller i have to use DAQmx for the purpose.Is it posible to do like this ?
Sending the serial command using the serial VISA vi's and for communication with the devices DAQmx can be used?
