I'm trying to automate the reading of data from an elmeasure instrument (Voltmeter alpha+). This instrument has RS485 port. I have connected it to "RS-485 to USB converter" and the other end (USB end) is connected to my laptop (Windows 10). I want to read the instrument reading using NI labVIEW. But how do I interface it?

I tried tools like modbus, wireshark, putty, directly through command prompt, and serial read via labVIEW. nothing worked. Only in MODSCAN I'm able to read. How do I interface this with LabVIEW?
