rs485 and VISA Configure Serial Port.vi ?

I'm given the following spec:
RS485, full duplex asynchronous, 19.2K baud, 1 start bit, 1 stop bit, 1 parity bit, and 8 data bits.

VISA Confgiure Serial Port.vi does not have input for 1 start bit and parity choices are none, even, odd, mark, space.

What should my settings bit for this to work?

Since the VISA Confgiure Serial Port.vi does not have an input for the start bit you can just ignore this. For the parity bit, your instrument should give more information. For example, two of the choices are even or odd. These are both one parity bit, so your instrument needs to define whether it is odd or even. It should say on the spec sheet.

Hope this helps!
