Tenma 72-2540 serial control

Has anyone got any experience controlling the Tenma 72-2540 power supply, or some other device that does not use termination characters? I got the read working by using byte count, and the write works sometimes, but sometimes the power supply just "hangs" and doesn't respond to anything anymore. When I do writes via NI Trace one command at a time it's ok. I've tried adding some delays into my program that needs to write several commands in a row, but it hasn't worked so far. The instrument also doesn't have a command for reset. I guess the only solution is to manually turn it off and on again when it stops responding?

Hey kukmii,
did this very simple and old LV Driver work for the Tenma 72-2540 Power Supply?
Cause I'm currently looking for a working driver for the same old PS but need to know in front buying if the driver works properly or not.

Which experience have you made?

 

Best Regards ZFO
