Good Afternoon all, I've noticed that there has already been some dicussion about the improvement of certain aspects of LabVIEW VISA usage with the release of LabVIEW 7.1. Has anyone any feel for any impact in the response time, particularly in setting attributes (parity, etc.), either improvement, or negative impact. I'm interested between 7.1, 7.0 and 6.1. I, at my customer's request, have been working in 6.1, but they approached me Friday and said that at least one of their engineer's was going to try 7.1 as soon as they got the CD. My problems with doing 9-bit serial are _almost_ resolved, but the required parity switching between send and receive is on the hairy edge, timing wise, sometimes missing the first byte (the responding device's address). I have now gotten it to be about 98% reliable, but am looking to make it more like 99.99%. Also, is there any impact to running an "exe" version, or is what I'm looking at more a function of the Windows-VISA interface? Thanks, for the suggestions sent directly, and if KevinZ could write too me again, I lost your email address and would like to continue the thread we had started.
Thanks again to all, happy wiring, Putnam Monroe Senior Engineer Summit Technology
