remote panel control in LANs

[syd_b]

hi, i have used the web publishing tools from labview 7.1 and everything works fine in my computer, i can see it in the web browser of my computer. but when i tried to access from another computer to the address given by labview web server is (http://kulilin-e8xw0v9:5986/john.htm) didn´t work.

remote front panel only can be view and control in a local area network (LANs)? if no, how can i access and control a front panel from internet, not in a local area network.

Isn't this the same question you asked in this post?

There you said it worked fine.

Please don't create duplicate posts for the same question.

Hi Syd_b;

As I understand from your post you want to be able to view the Remote Front Panel not only in your LAN but also from the Internet. The only difference when you want to work like this is that the IP address you have to use is the Public IP of your network. In the link below there is more information about it and also some instructions you have to follow.

I hope the information is useful.

Good Luck

hi thanks for the info but i have one question, if the company that provides me internet service (MegaRed, Mexico) has block pot 80 for security. This could be a reason that i can´t access to the remote panel.

thanks.

I have solved the problem, thanks for all help.

How did you solve the problem? I also want to access the front panel from anywhere, not only among the LAN. Hope you can reply!

What I did is the following, I created my vi and used the web publishing tool to create the file in the \www folder. Then I need a static ip, so I used no-ip server to connect my pc ip to the static ip of no-ip server. There they gave me an address like "http: //panelremoto.no-ip.biz". Then, in the file crated with labview i wrote the following line <PARAM name="server" value="http://panelremoto.no-ip.biz"></EMBED> and saved. The I created a free web page where I uploaded the file. With this I could access from any pc with internet just typing the address of the created web page.

You need to enable the web server, install the plugins related with your labview version and your web browser. I upload the file where you can see where you have to write the server line.   

Hope this help

Hi, I really appreciate your answer!

What do you mean with "create a free web page and upload the file" ? How?

I hope you can answer me again and excuse me for more questions!

I also have another question. Which one was the original IP of the computer among the LAN? (number?) it was static,public, dynamic...?

Ok... about my first question i already read the last line of the attached file 😃

As i understood you modified the file saved in the www file of National instruments, isn't it? Then.. it can not just wok accesing the same file with the URL created by labview? instead of create a new web page? Did you tried it? or what is your opinion about this?
