Interface to the MKS 946

Hello,

I am completely new to the LABVIEW. I need help to decide about the interface.

Currently 2 vacuum gauges and 2 MFCs are connected to MKS 946 controller. MKS 946 can be communicated through RS232 cable. If I directly connect MKS 946 to the LABVIEW through RS232, Can I still acquire and save data from each gauge and MFCs separately?

I appreciate your help.

Thanks

Shreya
