Finding cole-parmer polystat chiller VIs... help?

[NPrice]

I'm looking to control a polystat chiller via RS-232. It came with some custom software but I'd like to control it from LabVIEW. I found mention of LabVIEW drivers on their website so I wondered if anyone here already had them and had used them/found them useful.

Thanks for any help,
Neil

I know this is an old post, but I had the same question. If you're lucky, many models speak plain ASCII and a quick Teraterm test will confirm it. See the attached manual. Standard methods work here.

This includes, models 1C6, 1C6F, 1C15, 2C15, 3C6, 3C6F, 3C15, etc.

But there appear to be some (newer?) models that speak binary and require a sort of checksum and you should find those manuals online. Something like the attached code snippet would be a place to start.
