My front panel display updates every 20secs. I want to be able to view the Labview front panel on a web-page which updates itself continuously. Will Lookout do this?
LabVIEW will do this with it's built in web server. Full control of a LabVIEW front panel is possilbe with version 6.1. Older versions have the ability to publish a panel with no control. What version do you have? Lookout is a completely different software package for HMI/SCADA applications and has no relationship to LabVIEW except that they're sold by the same company.
I am doing something similar at present, and am using the get image invoke node and write jpeg functions. These images are stored on the server, then you have the option to put meta refresh tags on your html page
Yes you will! LV 6 web server enables you to publish a front panel on a web page, both static and animated. Take a look at Chapter 17 of LV user manual: Publishing VIS on the Web. Alberto
