Using Your Serial Hardware with LabVIEW and
LabWindows/CVI
PCMCIA Serial for Windows NT
convert it into meaningful results using the powerful data analysis routines
in LabVIEW. LabVIEW also comes with hundreds of instrument drivers,
which dramatically reduce software development time, because you do not
have to spend time programming the low-level control of each instrument.
LabWindows/CVI is similar to LabVIEW, except that it combines an
interactive, easy-to-use development approach with the programming
power and flexibility of compiled ANSI C code.

After you install your serial hardware and the NI-Serial software, you can
use standard serial I/O functions in LabVIEW and LabWindows/CVI with
your serial interface. If you already have LabVIEW or LabWindows/CVI
and want to use it with your serial hardware, refer to your LabVIEW or
LabWindows/CVI documentation for information about serial I/O
functions.
