Hi there,
I am attempting to interface Labview with a custom-designed power supply device through a USB-RS232 adapter. The power supply came with a "debugging interface" programmed in java with which one can send and recieve commands to the board (detect, set voltage, get voltage, stop, reset, etc.) through the USB-RS232 adapter which works fine.
I however am not experienced with java in the least and want to streamline command sequences with Labview, as I am interfacing the rest of my lab equipment with Labview. I dont have experience connecting serial devices, I do have USBTMC & GPIB VISA interfaces with the other equipment.
Nonethless I've tried the advanced serial communication example provided by NI, (http://www.ni.com/example/27665/en/) - I have appropriately set to COM3 as my device manager (and MAX) find the correct port for the device, baud rate, data bits, stop bits, parity, flow control, XON/XOFF characters, Input Buffer Size, End read/write with termination character, which termination character, and how long till time out.
Yet from my Portmon log, I'm seeing that the java interface sets a few other parameters that I (at the moment) do not have access to through the labview VI (or from MAX). How do I set Output Buffer Size? What are EOF? EVT? Replace? XON/OFF limits? WC? How do I set them?
Both Portmon log files are attached.
