Hello, You mention that you send a string to the microprocessor that tells it how many bytes to send. Instead of requesting 512 bytes, try reading 10 times and only requesting about 50 bytes at a time. If that doesn=92t help, try directly communicating with your microprocessor through HyperTermi

I would check the instrument manual to see if there is a limit on the maximum number of bytes that it will send in one packet. Still try getting it to send 255 bytes and see if that works. If it does, then try 256 bytes to see if the limit is there (a one-byte counter for number of bytes sent). If

Hello, Can you elaborate what you mean by the system is lost? Ben has suggested a good idea of posting the code in question. It would also be helpful to know which version of LabVIEW you are using and which serial VIs you are using. His clarification of the timeout for the serial read is also a

Hi Deeply Annoyed, Please post your code or an image of same. We a pretty good about getting issues like this nailed if we have visual aides. Otherwise we have to continue the guessing. Re: Timeout I think Joe was talking about the "Timeout" for the serial read, not a wait timer. Like I said,

I pull fiftyfour bytes of data from MicroProcessor's EEPROM using serial port. It works fine. I then send a request for 512 bytes and my "read" goes into loop condition, no bytes are delivered and system is lost I pull fiftyfour bytes of data from MicroProcessor's EEPROM us
