Hi guys! i spent quite a lot time in searching in these forums to know exactly what i want. but i couldnt understand somehow. thats why posting it. I have connected my labview vi with my PIC microcontroller. The piC is sending it a sensors data continuously in the form of data stream like the following u253vx132y this stream gets updated at regular intervals so this 253 and 132 actually represents sensors data. currently im using match pattern function of strings to separate 253 and 132 and then performs some maths operation on them. sometimes the stream gets this form u25vx132y now if you compare the above two data streams , the first one is of 10 bytes and second one is of 9 bytes. this puts me thinking ke what to keep the value of byte count . then i think to use a termination character. but im unable to use it. i tried all the methods but it dint work. please tell me how it works. im using a serial monitor program, i put \n as a termination character, but when i send a string from it like hello\n it doesnt seem to terminate. Please tell me how to do this

HI guys! I was using Labview 8.1 initially. Then i installed Labview 8.2 20th Anniversary edition. Im facing two major problems here. 1) Whenever i use Serial communications and i press on the drop down button of my Visa Resource Name control in order to select the appropriate COM port, the system gets hangs and i have to shutoff my Labview through ctrl+alt+del. Due to this problem , im just unable to select the right COM port for my program. I dint face this problem in 8.1 2) When i right click on any control lets say KNOB and click on its properties. It starts searching something in different folders of my Labview Installation and after taking quite some time, it displays its properties. I dont know why is it doing so? Again this wasnt the problem when i was using 8.1 version of Labview. i would like to bring into the knowledge of you people that 8.1 is still installed on my pc. I dint reinstall it. I just install 8.2, i thought it will upgrade it but the National instruments entry in the "add remove programs" of control panel shows that 8.1 is still there along with 8.2. So is this causing all these problems? Kindly help me as soon as possible! Thanks in advance!
