Does Web UI Builder support the DSC Module?

[herbrand]

A simple question:

Can I use the Web UI Builder for a Web-client-access at a Windows-LabVIEW-System with DSC module or supportet this UI tool only the basic LabVIEW features for front panel objects?

For example: Can I use a web client to look into historical data and alarms? Can I use a web client with full support of "Front Panel Security Dialog Box" (see http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371618F-01/lvdsc/front_panel_security_db/)?

Best regards

Hello Frank,

Yes, you can use Web UI Builder to access historical data and view current alarms. The LabVIEW 2010 version of DSC has several built-in RESTful web services that make Citadel and alarm data available via HTTP. Below are some resources to provide the details on how it works.

Here's a an example that illustrates how implement the web service communication to Citadel:

This sample VI shows how to access historical data.  Does anyone have an example of using Web UI Builder to access current alarms? ie, Web Service nialarm?
