National Instruments offers serial interfaces for PCI, PXI, PCMCIA, ISA, USB, and Ethernet. They are asynchronous interfaces for communicating with instruments via serial ports. Depending on the platform, interfaces are available with up to 16 ports and full Windows 2000/NT/XP/Me/9x plug-and-play compatibility, which gives you the benefit of automatic configuration for easier installation and maintenance. You can install and use these devices as standard serial ports from your existing applications or with applications written with NI-VISA. Development environments such as Visual Basic, Visual C++, and Excel, as well as NI LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, Measurement Studio, and Lookout application software products, can access the add-in serial ports using standard serial I/O functions. All interface devices include an enhanced serial driver for improved performance, easy configuration, and access to the advanced transceiver control modes of the RS485 interfaces.
