I am talking to a TI Launchpad board with some custom code. It appears as a serial device when connected to the USB. If it gets unplugged, then plugged back in, LavVIEW can't communicate with it until a system reboot is performed. I don't have any problems reconnecting to it with a new RealTerm window, but LabVIEW goes silent.
Windows Manager shows it is there.
This is on a large test station where multiple fixtures may be connected one at a time. Rebooting is not a good option
