Description

I created a very simple WebVI that acts as a client to the LabVIEW Weather Monitoring Web Service Example included with an install of LabVIEW. This example uses an HTTP call to request data from the Web Service example. I created the WebVI using LabVIEW NXG Web Module 5.0. 

 

In the process of figuring out how to interact with the Web Service example, I used this great tutorial Creating and Publishing a LabVIEW Web Service to the Application Web Server.

 

 

 

 

 

How to Use

  • Open up, configure, and run the LabVIEW Weather Monitor Web Service example in LabVIEW 20XX
    • I hosted everything on the NI Web Server. Ensure your Port used is the same open port setup during the NI Web Server Configuration
  • Open the "Weather Monitor Client" WebVI in LabVIEW NXG 5.0. You will also need the LabVIEW NXG Web Module installed.
    • Ensure the IP and Port information match those in your Weather Monitor Web Service.
    • Run the Weather Monitor Server VI
    • Run the Weather Monitor Client WebVI
