Hi there,
I am working on a system which will communicate with 1-32 DUT at a time. I am trying to extract data from these units as quick as possible so that I can move on to the next task. My initial thoughts was using an array of COM ports and feeding into a for loop to write/read one unit at a time but it seems like that would take too long. All 32 units are the same so they all use the same write/read VI. Making this write/read VI reentrant seems like a hassle because I believe I would need 32 instances of this VI on my block diagram? And it doesn't seem like a good design if I need to increase/decrease the number of units/com port in the future. But would this significantly increase my speed?
Please advise on the fastest way to accomplish a simultaneous write/read on 32 com ports.
Thank you!
Serge
