VISA read of serial data issue

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello,

I'm starting back to Labview (after a few years) and I've a problem with a basic Serial Read program (using VISA).  The code is attached, and my issue is that I'm getting output of "FE FE FE", when I can see in Putty terminal it is counting upwards in integers indefinitely - I can't quite grasp what is going wrong here (after much trial and error), so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Rob

First thing to do is to use the Configure Serial Port  instead of the VISA Open and make sure your serial port settings are currect.

Absolutely right... I made a silly assumption the baud rate of 9600 was right, when it should have been 115200.  Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
