Hi,
I am trying to communication with some lab equipement (Ebara Turbopump) over rs485. Now I have a Blastronix 2 port RS485 PCI board connect with cabiling to the equipement. But when I try and use NI-VISA to communication, the read times out, which is not particularly useful information because I don't know what part of my query is wrong then.
Below, I've posted some images from their communication protocol, but I am very confused as to how to translate this into a Labview VI. So far I've tried using a String Constant with the example 8.1 (last image, with my slave ID: 001) but I get nothing. I've tried it in both ASCII and Hex with a carriage return at the end.
Any help is very appreciated!!
