Hi everyone, I am fairly new to LabVIEW and have been having a problem programing some code to write and read over the same serial port. Here goes: I need to be able to both write and read over the same serial port, but the trick is that I need to be able to write a message whenever one of several buttons is pressed, and read at all other times. The examples I have loaded up and played with all have selectors for either reading or writing, and if both are turned on, it will wait for me to write something, then read(whatever is in the read buffer), then wait for me to write something, then read again. Any help or examples would be greatly appreciated. I am loading a modified version of the Advanced serial write and read VI. Thanks for your help!
