Filename: low_level_word_serial.c
Requirements: View

Below is an example that uses NI-VXI to implement Word Serial Protocol for one Word Serial Write and one Word Serial Read. It will prompt the user for the LA of the message based device to communicate with and a string to send to the device. It will then read the response from the device and print it to the screen. In some systems you may need to adjust the timing of the register reads and writes by adding waits to the program as some instruments may not respond fast enough. In the interest of space, most error checking has been left out of this example.
