I changed the serial baud setting to 38400.

28800 was not supported by Arduino's Serial Monitor.

If you're using my preliminary LabVIEW lib, edit the Initialize block. The final lib will default to 38400.

I got that to work, but had to put the library in my own documents folder (thanks, [mention:8fb233e8974445138ef0af2b63b49f94:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05], for that hint) and not in the Arduino installation library directory.

Now all I need to do is dream up an instrument for it to control and then build it.

These are the commands supported:

I've updated the code in this blog. It's tested and works.

The pins are digital 2 and 3. If you want to change that, edit this line:
