ok this program is driving me NUTS! i have this microchip which uses a certain protocol... now this protocol requires that you send it some characters in hexadecimal so it'll reset... afterwhich it'll send you a data packet containing the version of the microchip etc etc (it's an aduc812... which you can find on www.analog.com)... anyway, that's not important... i am having trouble actually WRITING to serial port 1... i noticed that doing it through an actual PC requires some sort of "open serial port.vi" which is not available in the pda version... all i have is init.vi which is apparently not enough from what i am told... i thas to be opened first... initialized next... then written to then read from... does anyone know how i can acc
omplish this open procedure with the pda module? is that some sort of software i'm missing? why isn't it included with the pda module add on... etc etc... thank you in advance... i really need help with this so as much information as possible would be appreciated... let me know if you need further info...
