The goal is to select a string (button) to send to a RS-232 instrument using a USB to serial converter to be run on any PC from an EXE file. The front panel buttons will select which string to send and select the proper com port. Reading messages is only for errors. When running example simple serial.vi, VISA is installed and does not find the virtual port (Port 😎 in the list. Can a program (with or without VISA) be converted to an EXE file? Can a program in LabView, that does not use VISA, communicates directly with a serial port? Naturally the user must know which com port the USB converter is installed. This is typically a Virtual port, not com 1-4. I am looking for an example project or VI to complete the inital testing on LV2014 or LV8.6. Does anyone have a suggestion of the best way to complete this simple task?
