Hi,
I need to measure a few voltages wirelessly using LabVIEW on the cRIO 9073, independent of web access. I am not too familiar with LabVIEW, so could someone give me perhaps a general outline of how to go about doing this? Or direct me to some applicable tutorials or help pages? I have already been through many of the basic LabVIEW tutorials and posts in this forum but post whatever you think could help.
Thank you

I forgot to add, I need to be able to view the measurements in real time through a browser on the same network as the cRIO.

Take a look at these threads:

Essentially, you can plug your cRIO into an access point that will connect to your normal wireless network. That will get you on the same network as other machines and you can then use remote front panels or web services to publish your data through a browser.

Okay, thanks for your reply. So can I use a web service on a local network without internet access?

Yes, the CompactRIO will actually have the server running for you to pull data from. So as long as you have a connection to it, you should be fine.
