Modbus library for LV 2010

The modbus library I downloaded from this link: http://sine.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/4756 seems to be compatible with LabVIEW 8.6 and older, but I am using LabVIEW 2010. Is it still supposed to work? I followed everything in the attached readme to place the files in the right directories, and the library still doesn't show up under the user libraries menu on the block diagram. Any suggestions?

 

Thanks.

Modbus library working properly with LabVIEW 2010 (because written on pure LabVIEW - therefore upwards compatible with future LV versions).

If you have placed files into proper directories (vi.lib, user.lib and help), but palette is not appear - then you can add palette manually. Just select Tools->Advanced->Edit Palette Set, then Right Mouse click on the place where you want to see ModBus palette, then select Insert... and select link to modbus.mnu file located in user.lib directory.

Y-Gu,

 

In the future, we request that you do not bump old threads, and instead post in a new thread with your specific issue youre running into. It helps keep the forums searchable. As for the timeout error, we will need more information on how you are coming to it. If you could make a new thread with what your system consists of, what you are doing to produce the behavior, as well as some information on the specifics of the code (like screenshots or a section of the code itself), you will probably be able to find an answer much more quickly.
