Communicate with VIX Parker servo drive from LabVIEW

Hi,

I'm trying to communicate with VIX Parker servo drive (VIX250AH) via serial interface from LabVIEW. The Servo drive (VIX250AH) is used to control MX80L linear servo motor.

 

When I try to send any command from LabVIEW using VISA write, it just echos back the same command as response but there is no motion in the linear servo motor. Also when I try to read the status register or read back the configured distance /velocity /acceleration, it just echos the same query command (1D\r\n;) as response.

 

With Parker's EASI-V software tool, I'm able to communicate(COM1,9600) with Servo drive and execute a sample test program which actually moves the servo motor as expected. But I'm not able to achieve the same motion from LabVIEW. Even I'm not sure whether the servo is able to recognize the commands sent from LabVIEW. Anyone worked with Parker's EASI-V programming commands from LabVIEW?
