Requirements: View

This example uses the VISA VIs to communicate with GPIB instruments over the internet. Data is between the instrument to the web page using CGI scripting. The script takes the data from the web browser, gives the inputs to the VI and then runs the VI. The instrument's response is used to build a dynamic HTML page. You can send the commands to your instrument by just using the Web page. You should have some knowledge of HTML,HTML FORM and CGI in order to modify this example.

Use the commands (instrument specific) e.g "*idn?".

Instructions are included in the readme.txt file.

This VI does take care of error handling on the server side. Error is displayed on the web page as well.
