I was trying a python http communication tutorial - https://aiohttp-demos.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial.html#views - when I had to disable the NI Application Web Server to proceed. And then I thought, what the **** am I doing? Maybe I should take the free (well, prepaid) gift of a working web server. Here's my task. A central HQ computer will have a GUI that monitors five machine stations, each of which has its own computer. Every approx 10 ms (negotiable), each station gives a report consisting of two arrays, the larger being 2048 data points, the other much smaller. Whenever HQ feels like it, HQ can tell a station to start or stop (its computer stays on). A local IP connection is used, with a router at each end. There is also a Raspberry Pi with its own IP address at each station's router, that can send camera frames to HQ. The station-computers use Python and C++ to do their work, not counting whatever needs to be added to communicate with HQ. Your advice please? Should I use Labview? On both ends or just the HQ? And which if any of these helpful add-ons suggested by Hooovahh should I use?
