has anyone worked with NetSupport and Labview together?

[TRAVO]

Hello,

I am looking for some info on NetSupport (remote desktop software) and LabVIEW together, we run a monitoring station using NetSupport to log into different locations and I have built programs for analyzing data after it has been transfered from the NetSupport login but was looking for some capabilities to integrate some functionality between the two programs, maybe even view the NetSupport login sessions via LabVIEW. is this possilbe and is it a good/bad idea.

thanks

Would you want to use remote front panels? You can use remote front panels to view or control a VI in any Web browser. You can run an application from anywhere. Here is a link with more information on remote front panels.

Also, are you trying to communicate to these "logins" over the internet? Over a server? Web server might be another option for you.

Hi Jordan,

Actually I am trying to connect to a remote server to view and possibly transfer files similar to a remote desktop connection. Ideally I would have a program that would open .csv files and analyze the data, we have been using NetSupport to connect and then doing a file transfer then running an application (labview) to open the file and analyze, however It would be nice to do this without having to connect and then transfer the files and then running the app. Can I build an app that will be able to connect to remote servers and open the files? does this make sense or am I rambling\repeating myself 🙂

Thanks in advance

So basically you are looking to do some sort of file/data transfer, correct?

Would it be possible to broadcast the data from your monitoring station?  Possibly TCP/IP?
