Thanks, Francois. I am actually interested in the HID specifically, but I appreciate you attaching the code. Looks like no one really got it working anyway. Bummer!

Hi David, Are you advocating scripting of 2 tick count vis into the error chain and then doing the subtraction to determine the measurement? Interesting idea, but then I guess I need to know a way to tack in those vi's into the error chain. And, often times, there may be some unbundling of an input cluster, in which case putting in the sequence structure ensures that you completely measure the timing of the vi. I'm not sure I would want to do this with a LV2 global because, to have it be useful, it would need to be reentrant (otherwise you might use it in a vi running in parallel and foul up your measurements). Thanks, Denise

I would like to automate something I end up doing fairly routinely...adding a flat sequence around some code and tick counts to determine how long a vi takes to run. After looking at Gavin's vi's (Thanks, Gavin!), I've determined how to add the sequence structure, but can anyone give me hints on tacking in the tick count and having it be _in_ the sequence frame? Thanks, Denise

Works like a charm. Sweet. Many, many thanks. Regards, Denise

Hi Dan, Popping up "ROBO init" brings up a Robo operation.ctl that is not found (in ROBO Cylinder (VISA) folder). Any chance you have that handy? Thanks, Denise

Hi Dan, LV 8.2. An example would be lovely. Thanks much, Denise

Hi Dan, Thanks for the amazingly prompt response. Finally found the documment. (Their site is difficult to navigate.) I'm trying: 7) Position Inquiry To poll the current position of a system addressed as #0 that has been homed to the motor end and has a 12mm lead, send the following string: Chr$(02) + 0R40000740008F + Chr$(03) I'm sending this using the Basic Serial Write and Read at 38400,8,N,1, FlowControl=None, and a 1 sec delay before read. I've tried FlowControl=RTS/CTS. I've tried \n and \r\n. Any suggestions?

Sounds like you might have found the command list for the robocylinder. Any chance you've still got your hands on it? I too am trying to develop a LV driver for it. Any hints? Thanks, Denise
