Hey
We are looking at developing a control snap to use ctrlX as our next control system. In order to provide a HMI and configuration tools to the customers we would lite for CtrlX to provide a webserver, where to we could either connect a web-enabled HMI, a wired connection to a laptop or wifi to a tablet/phone and utilise the same interface.
Â
In our view, this would be the simplest and most usable approach. And from what we have read this should be a supported approach... However, i have not found any guide/tutorial/quickstart on how to set up a web server interface on CtrlX core?
Â
Have we missed anything here? Anyone has any good links?
Â
My first understanding was that webcore would be the solution perfect for us, but on further reading it seems i was mistaken. Webcore is mentioned as being used in CtrlX.. but seems to be just a framework for the graphic design?
Â
What we want to achive as the next step, is a webserver running on the CtrlX core/virtual machine, that can serve a page to someone connecting and that can access data from the datalayer.
