CVI code for controlling multiple instruments

Hi,
I am in need of a CVI code to communicate with 2 instruments via either serial port or GPIB port of our choice. I don't know much about coding because I am a chemist. If you have this code in hand, can you please share it with me?

Thanks much,
 
Hi Ken,
It is possible to use Labview (and it's in fact much simpler) but I don't have labview installed on my computer.
Thanks,
 
The problem is that you can't simply communicate with any instrument with the same software. The software has to be written specifically for your instrument. This is because the signals you're interested in capturing will be different than the ones someone else is interested in, let alone calibration and a host of other issues. You can probably find software online that will show you what all of the raw signals are for a serial port, then modify it for your purposes. That should be relatively straightforward and something people here could help you with.
