USB communication

[Jaime Rodriguez]

I have an equipment that has USB output for several signals including temperature, pressure, etc. When I use the software that comes with the equipment I am able to read all the signals with no problem. However, as a Labview user I would like to make my own vi that reads these signals. How can I define a USB input in LabVIEW? I am not sure how to do this since I have worked quite a bit with serial communications but never with USB.

You can do some USB work with the VISA vi's. From the block diagram , look in All Functions, Instrument I/O, VISA, Visa Advanced, Interface Specific, Visa USB.
