The vi is identifyng the number of bytes to be read but the VISA Read vi is not able to read the data from the port.

We are trying to communicate with the AT106 balance of Mettler Toledo.The VI is attached.
We are sending in "SI" which is a standard command that is recoginsed by the balance. The balance reads it.The indicator after the property node indicates that there are 8 bytes available on the serial port. However, the VISA read VI fails to read the bytes at the serial port and gives the following error:
Error -1073807253 occurred at VISA Read in visa test.vi
Possible reason(s):
VISA: (Hex 0xBFFF006B) A framing error occurred during transfer.
The Vi is atttached.
Thanks

Hello,
You should also definitely check the baud rates specified; a framing error often occurs when different baud rates are specified, as the UARTs will be attempting to transmit and receive at different rates, causing the receiving end to either miss bits in a given frame, or sample bits more than once (depending on whether the receiving rate is lower or higher respectively). You should be able to check the baud rate used by your balance in the user manual, and match it in your VI with the baud rate parameter of the VISA Configure Serial Port VI.
