Hello,
I'm trying to connect an Arduino mega2560 board with labview but it doesn't show up in NI-MAX., in fact Serial and Parallel Ports are not identified in MAX. I have followed these steps https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-15971 and installed all software without errors however Labview simply doesn't recognize my com ports.
There is an error showing under devices and interfaces and i suspect it is connected with MAX being unable to communicate with the serial and parallel ports.
I've installed NI-VISA, NI-DAQ, NI-488.2 the arduino IDE, LIFA and drivers as well. The firmware was also uploaded to the board.
I've already tried multiple installations on different systems and different boards with the same results. I must be doing something really stupid but at this point I'm lost and a bit desperate. I would be really grateful if someone could lend me a hand.
Note 1: Added screenshots and a notepad with my system information so its easier to understand what I have installed.
