Read the serial number of the device in LabView COM port

Hello

Is it possible to read a device COM port number in LabView? I would like to make an initialization of the program following the right port COM of a device, for example a USB temperature reading device, and set the COM port as the correct port at the start of the main program of LabView. I want to do that, because a USB device gets usually different dedication of COM port on different computers. Our application runs on 80 different computers. A program like that would be very nice.

Can someone help me?

Another thought. It also has a place where certain standards can save you a lot of time.

You have 3 dongles by machine. When setting up a computer are these three dongles * always * assigned to, for example, com 3, com 4 and com 5.

Similarly, always check that instrument 1 is always on com 3, tool 2 is always on com 4 and 3 device is always on com 5.

This convention will also simplify debugging...
