labview REST communication to DUT

[jackson_thom]

hello, i'm developing a communication software to my DUT. i wish to use REST communication. the DUT has sort of test mode that i can use to try out or get the URL, if i would do it in my DUT, these are the steps i will do:

1) goto 192.168.1.1\tester.html

2) key in user name and password, both is "admin"

3) then i can select which parameter to test,such as the screenshot shown

how can i do this REST communication with labview instead of browser? such that i can read and write command to my DUT programatically?

i tried to use HTTP protocol, but i dont know how to get authentication, does anyone know how to setup the communication?

Thank you very much.

Have you looked at the JKI REST Client toolkit? That may work. You can find it in the VI Package Manager.

Dear Mark,

sorry if im asking noob question, i cannot get the authentication correct with JKL REST function, maybe it is very simple but i set it wrongly.

my unit IP is 192.168.1.1

its username and password is "admin"

would you please teach me how to set the authentication?

thank you

I haven't really used the JKI REST client. I know that it is available but haven't played with it yet. If I get a chance I'll take a look but hopefully someone who has experience with it can chime in.
