The Agito AGM800 can be communicated with using LabVIEW through its .NET API. The API is compatible with Windows .NET Standard, allowing integration with LabVIEW and other environments. To establish communication, install the .NET API available in the NuGet package manager and use the necessary .NET functions within LabVIEW to send and receive commands. The controller supports TCP/IP communication using ASCII string commands or binary CAN format.
