Frank,
Have you talked with the manufacturor to see if they have a prewritten instrument driver developed for that instrument? Many vendors release LabVIEW code for their instruments , or have a DLL or textual code that can be referenced from LabVIEW.
Unfortunately I was unable to find a driver for this instrument in the Developer Zone (http://zone.ni.com/idnet). I would suggest that you submit a request for this driver at:
http://zone.ni.com/idnet/other.htm
National Instrument develops drivers based on demand and popularity so the more requests NI has for it, the greater the possibility that we will develop one in the future.
If you would like to try developing your own instrument driver, documentation, model instrument drivers, and driver templates can be fou
nd at :
http://zone.ni.com/idnet/development.htm).
I would suggest contacting one of the Alliance members at:
http://www.ni.com/alliance
Many of these companies specifically design instrument drivers.
Beyond these approaches, LabVIEW is fully capable of using COM ports on your system for communication with any serial device. The port settings, messages and commands necessary to drive your instrument will be best documented in the instrument's manual.
