Connecting AND- GF series scale to LabVIEW

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello gents, this is my first time to try connect a scale to my LabVIEW software to acquire and log weights. The scale name is AND- GF-1603A and I can't find driver or library to use so I can done the work. Here is the link I got from scale documents: https://www.aandd.jp/support/labviewdriver.html. Can anyone help me find a solution for that. Thank you.

That link is broken (no www.):

 

LabVIEW Driver for A&D balances | Support | A&D

 

The link there doesn't seem to work either though.

 

Try to search here:

Search Results - NI

 

You probably end up here:

A&D Company, Ltd. A&D Balance - Serial Driver for LabVIEW - National Instruments

you need to find the information on the product documentation about Commands, it probably uses RS-232 serial communication. 

On LabVIEW search for examples of Serial communication using VISA functions. 

Once you find the list of commands to send to the scale, try using the examples. 

If you get stuck share your code here what you did so far.

Thank you. I read the weight using these VIs. I wrote similar code with similar inputs and worked.
