Hi to everyone!I want to build a 3 floor elevator simulation construction for a paper of mine.The plan is to be build like this.

pc->labview->modbus->rs232 converter->plc->elevator construction

I want to control the elevator from labview.Is there something wrong to the order?Do i miss something?Any information and links about same projects will be pracious,because it's the first time that i mess with all this stuff :-).Thank you all

Hi,

what you describe is a quite typical usecase. Here are some links that should help you to getting started with your Modbus communication:

Modbus LabVIEW Library
Creating Modbus I/O Servers (DSC Module)

Please note, that for the second option the LabVIEW DSC module is required.

I hope this helps,
