Serial Communication Based on LabVIEW for the Development of an ECG Monitor

Abstract:

The techniques of serial communication utilized in a developed electrocardiogram (ECG) monitor programmed by the LabVIEW are introduced in the paper. By utilized the VISA serial communication functions included in the LabVIEW, some functions of serial ports such as opening and closing, commands sending and responses receiving, etc. can be easily called. Then, the communication between the ECG sensor and the ECG virtual instrument is established. By this way, the opening and the closing controls of the ECG sensor, the ECG data acquisition, the data processing and storage, the real-time drawing of the ECG waveform and so on can performed simply. As a result, serial communication by the LabVIEW make the program development of the ECG monitor becoming much quicker, more convenient and high efficient.
