Hello, I am trying to use LabVIEW to send commands to the 8 channel solid state relay board with an ethernet port, but I am getting an error when using the VISA configure vi: "VISA: (Hex 0xBFFF001D) The specified attribute is not defined or supported by the referenced resource." I have configured the device with MAX and it seems to be communicating fine with the computer. I believe this is because I don't have all the correct parameters set for this board. Right now, I have the following: Enable Termination Char: FALSE timeout: 2000 ms baud rate: 9600 data bits: 8 parity: None stop bits: 1.0 Input buffer size: 4096 Are these the correct settings? Please help
Hello Wyatt, I'm a bit confused as to whether this question is about an Ethernet device or USB device. The settings that you have shared applies only to our USB devices. If that is the case, the settings seem to be correct. But one important item missing here is the Flow Control settings. The Flow Control must be set to "None" or equivalent for our USB devices to work. Thanks, Tom Numato Lab
Hi Wyatt, Ethernet communication shouldn't have baud rate, parity etc. Are you sure you are using the correct component for communication? The settings that you have specified are for VISA serial. The Ethernet devices do communicate using TELNET protocol. Thanks, Tom
OK, I have coded a vi using the TCP open, write, and close functions, but I am still getting no response from the board. I have a screenshot uploaded below. If you are familiar with labview, could you take a look and identify any possible problems?
Hi Wyatt, Unfortunately I cannot understand much from the screenshot since I personally don't know Labview much, neither do we have Labview experts here. But I found the following link that discuss about TELNET implementation with Labview. This may be helpful. http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370014E-01/internet/telnet_open_connection/ https://decibel.ni.com/content/message/121937 If you have specific questions about how to use Labview, I recommend contacting Labview customer support. Have you tried communicating with the device using Teraterm or any other program that supports TELNET? I would start there to make sure that the device is working as expected and then proceed with Labview. Thanks, Tom
Hi...i am a new user here. As per my knowledge the settings that you have shared applies only to our USB devices. If that is the case, the settings seem to be correct.
