Controlling a program via internet

[Gant88]

Hi, 

I wrote a program that controls a stepper motor that is attached to a camera. The program is working perfectly but now i want to upgrade it. What i want to do is for people to be able to access a personal website and be able to control the direction of the camera. Is there any way that labview can read a command from an html page to make it run as soon as the user writes the command?

Thank you for your help,

Hi Guillermo,

one solution would be to use the "web publishing tool". Another one could be to run your own webserver, read the request and react on it.

Hello,

I would suggest Remote Panels if you do not already have this as part of your LabVIEW package:

Here's some additional information on this:
