The Dashboard Creation Toolkit (DCT) Project M. Fátima Gómez de la Cruz (EN-ICE-MTA)

 Provide an easy and standard way to create dynamic web pages from on-line data.  Requirements:  Drag and drop objects.  Only configuration.  Access to connect to data via dedicated server.  Clear template definition.  Web page creation.  Proposal: using the LabVIEW XControls technology and RADE framework

 What is?  Is a reusable custom control/indicator.  Has dedicated code.  Possibility to add new user functionalities.  Why?  Grouping in the project window.  Configurable from pop-up windows.  Once drag and drop isn’t necessary to program the Block Diagram (no high LabVIEW knowledge).

 The structure:  Data (.ctl)  State (.ctl)  Façade (.vi)  Init (.vi)  Convert State For Save (.vi)  Uninit (.vi)  Properties  Methods

 ProjectGeneratorMain.vi

 The configuration file (devices.csv) has to be placed into Config file.  Structure:  Data Type  Device/Field#Property  Visible Name  Description  Units  Frequency  Buffer

Drag and drop XControls Select device(s) in the pop-up window Each XControl instance has all the Devices Names and only one user event refnum Run Main.vi Automatically we launch the subscriptions which will work in parallel with the Main.vi XControl update by notifications Read from Buffer and update the XControl Write to Buffer Devices and Refnums will be saved in a FG from the XControl Init ability Configuration Execution
