set/burn modbus address on to the Linak l36 actuator using labview

Hi I have a linak L36 actuator. I have connected 5 of them in Daisy chain format. I am operating with a serial DB9 connector. I want to know how I sit at one point on the computer and burn the modbus addresses to the devices connected in series. Is ther a way to broadcast the modbus address??  please let me know as to how I do that in labview.

You can control your devices with LabVIEW through the Datalogging and Supervisory Control (DSC) Module. The DSC Module gives you access to I/O servers which let you bind LabVIEW shared variables to ModBus coils and registers.

 

You can find more information about this at the links I have posted below:
