There are no native LabVIEW Libraries that I know of, but there are some 3rd party apps that provide you with an ActiveX calling mechanism. Check out what NI says about it here. The article links to one of the 3rd party implementations.

You can read the original patent application here (Patent # 6862557). It has some good info.

There are also some good sites if you Google the right thing. If you try to Google SECS you'll get a lot of hits from people who apparently don't know how to spell sex. Try "SECS Protocol" or spell out the whole acronym.
