Using a web server to serve the graphical output as shown on the Labview client to remote web browser clients

I have a Labview server process running on the same machine as a web server. I like to be able to serve the graphical output as shown on the Labview client to remote web browser clients.

1) Can you please give suggestions on how to go about achieving my objective?

2) Where can I find the data log files generated by Labview?

Thanks
Cat

Hi Cat,

If you like to show front panels over http, you have two possibilities:

1. you can use LV's builtin web server by using a URL with .snap or
..monitor. You can find additional information about that in your LV www
subdirectory.

2. You can create images from your front panels and save them to a
specified disk path. Include the disk path into your HTML page, but be
careful about cached image data!!

Hope that helps
chris
