rs485 addressing in labview

[Everett]

Hello

I have a NI usb-485 1 port comm adapter and wish to use it to communicate with an instrument over  rs-485.  My question is, how do I tell labview the address of the device.  I am using 2 wire mode.  I have looked at the programming example on the serial quick reference but it doesn't show how to address the device that I want to communicate with.

Thanks

Everett

RS485 addressing is not related to port setup, but it's instrument dependent. Normally the address is embedded in the command strings.
Check the instrument communication protocol documentation if you need to build it from scratch. If there is an instrument driver, there should be some address parameter to be passed to the related vi's/functions.
