mindmoody Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Hello everyone in LAVA... currently i'm working on my project by using LabVIEW.. I want to use serial port (RS232) to control a humididty sensor and one servo motor.. How am i going to build the control and monitoring application by using this LabVIEW? Please give me a guide.. where should i start? Thanks.. regards, Mindmoody Quote Link to comment

Click "Empty Project" Seriously though...that is a really vague question. You need to start by learning enough about LabVIEW to be able to ask a specific question. I would recommend the Basics I & II classes offered by NI, or buy LabVIEW for Everyone and go through it on your own. Either one of these methods should give you enough knowledge to write a simple serial communications control program. Quote Link to comment

In addition to the advice above I would say that you should look at the examples for VISA communications. Quote Link to comment
bmoyer Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 After LabVIEW loads select the Help-->Find Examples... menu. See screenshot for the details in the NI Example Finder. Quote Link to comment

mindmoody Posted March 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Thanks you guys for replying.. thanks for commenting my post.. :worship: let me give you guys a details.. i am working with this labview to develop a control and monitoring system using a serial port. My LabVIEW program should give reading of the humidity sensor and can control the servo motor. what i want here is can you guys give me a simple example, truely i'm a beginner with this LaBVIEW.. Thanks Mindmoody Quote Link to comment

Did you look at it? Do you have any specific questions about it? -Toby Quote Link to comment
mindmoody Posted March 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Thanks.. that useful, but i need to know how to control the program.. in my case, i want to control one servo motor using this LabVIEW application.. how am i gonna do it? please give me some guide..

AnalogKid2DigitalMan Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Well, given the lack of details you have provided, I suggest you start reading the manual for your servo motor controller, specifically the programming commands section. -AK2DM Quote Link to comment
mindmoody Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 ok.. i will start with the servo manual.. thanks a lots everyone.. i'll comeback if there is any enquiries.. :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
