Why Do I Get Error -32812 When Using Serial to Read or Write to a cFP-180x from a cFP-2xxx?Hardware: PXI/CompactPCI>>Controllers
Problem: Why do I get Error -32812 when using serial to read or write to a cFP-180x from a cFP-2xxx? Solution: Error -32812 can indicate many different problems in a FieldPoint VI. If you are trying to communicate using serial, then this error can result if you do not have the right software installed. You must have NI-Serial RT installed on the controller to communicate with a cFP-180x using serial. If you installed the FieldPoint 6.0 (minimal) software set, NI-Serial RT is not included. You can check to see if you have it installed by opening Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) and expanding the software tree for the controller. ![]() If you do not have NI-Serial RT installed, then you can install the full FieldPoint 6.0 software set or install NI-Serial RT on its own. To install NI-Serial, right-click Software and select Add/Remove Software. Then select Custom software installation and click Next.
![]() Click the "X" next to NI-Serial RT and select to Install the feature. Once the FieldPoint controller reboots, you should be able to run your VI without Error -32812.
