Remote controlling of few components

[HB.]

Hello

I want to monitor my VI remotely through Web browser.

1. How can I be able to view my application without installing Run Time Engine on another PC?

2. Can I remotely control only few of the Controls rather than having control on the whole VI?

3. Can I copy the spreadsheet data (present in application vi) remotely through web browser?

How Do I Publish My VI to a Web Page?

How Do I Enable LabVIEW Web Server or Use Remote Panels With an Executable Built in LabVIEW?

If are willing to use a ni webserver then you will need a runtime engine else you can create your own.

Hello muks

can I give control to a remote user on particular objects (specific controls on front panel for e.g. only 1 button out of 3 can be remotely and rest should not )? Also, I want to let the remote user to copy the data (I have 1D spreadsheet array of numeric values that I want to let the remote user to copy it in his pc whenever he wants to).  How can I do that?

Dear Muks,

the link you posted is not relevant to my question. I have gone through all these steps. I just want to create such VI in which remote user can have a control on a single object (say tab control) i.e. how remote user can have a control only on "Tab Control Container". The rest of the conotrol switches shouldn't be in a control of any remote user.

Can any one reply me?

So, Muks is right. That is the method you would use to publish a remote front panel. As for what you want to do... there isn't exactly a way you can just select items on the front panel to show to some users but not others on the same front panel. The way I see it, one way to do it is like this:

1: Take the VI that you want to control and publish Network Shared Variables for each and every item on the front panel

2: Create "Client" and "Admin" VIs that interface with these variables in the way you want them to. If you don't want the Client to have access to the "Stop" button or something, then don't include it.

3: Publish these as remote front panels according to the processes posted by Muks.
