communication protocol

[riot]

hi to all.

we have to  make a project for the university using a Fm reciver and  emitter we need to send a signal  between two computers wich will communicate each other; the communication will be half duplex.

Our teacher told us that we must use labview and DAQs , and the Ni elvis to do it  and that we need to create something like  a communication protocol in labview. We want to have control  over the  revolutions of an engine, when a number of revolutions be reached one computer will send a signal and  in the other computer  we will  decide what to  do . In other words one computer will be  like supervising the process ( that the revolutions of the engine be reached) and the other will be controling the whole process.Since i am  new  using Labview i don't have a clear image of this, i'll be glad if any of you can give me any advice or  a clue that can help me.

By the way i'm from El Salvador....

Have a look at this for an example. You can also get other examples and tutorials by searching the site. You may also like to try searching for Datasocket.

To learn more about LabVIEW, I suggest you try searching this site and google for LabVIEW tutorials. Here and here are a couple you can start with. You can also contact your local NI office and join one of their courses.
In addition, I suggest you read the LabVIEW style guide and the LabVIEW user manual (Help>>Search the LabVIEW Bookshelf).
