Can RTMC accept data from a website and display it alongside the serially connected data logger data? Or can it only talk to an actual LoggerNet server?

The standard RTMC can only use LoggerNet as its data source. Currently, RTMC cannot read or display standard web pages within its own display. However, RTMC Pro can accept data from files stored in a range of formats:

  • ASCII Table Data, Short Header (TOACI1)
  • ASCII Table Data, Long Header (TOA5)
  • ASCII Mixed Array, Comma Separated (requires FSL or DLD file)
  • Binary Table Data (TOB1)
  • Binary Table Data, PC Card (TOB2)
  • Binary Table Data, PC Card (TOB3)
  • CSIXML Data File

With RTMC Pro, raw data can be displayed if the data can be pulled back onto the PC from the Internet in one of the previously listed Campbell Scientific formats.

Alternatively, if the web page can be captured as an image (outside of RTMC using third-party tools), RTMC Pro can be used to place the image in the design with a refresh interval when the file is re-read.
