Hi. There are a couple example VIs in LabVIew that you may find useful. Look in the "Find Examples" section in the Help menu. The examples enable you to specify the characteristics of your signal to read or write.

If you want to analyse the timing of the serial stream, as far as I know it is not possible with the PCs serial port and the VISA driver. the standard UART together with the 'standard' (MS) OS does not allow you to analyse the timing. Solutions I have seen always worked with dedicated extra hardware that have 'software' UARTs to allow the fetch of the (UART) timer.
Sounds like you have a SOC with a internal (RC) clock source 😉 reading this would need a baudrate detection to adapt to the off the standard baudrates to avoid framing errors. If you have such a weak timing, why not switch to a SPI or I2E slave and use the printerport to read the data?
I know that (some?) NI serial cards allow non standard baudrate settings, however ask NI or the manuals if they also can do a baudrate detection.
