Communicate WebDAQ 316 with LabVIEW

[soumya]

In LabVIEW library of WebDAQ, there is only VIs available for reading data from WebDAq 316. How to add new channel using LabVIEW for WebDAQ.  

How can I use LabVIEW to configure the device such as enabling / disabling thermocouple channels, changing the type of thermocouple, creating a  new jobetc?

Are there other communications protocols available like Modbus or TCP/IP or something similar?

Hello @soumya.

The LabVIEW VI examples for the WebDAQ modules are included with the WebDAQ REST API examples.  

https://mcc.download.ni.com/#downloads/WebDAQ/REST-API/

The WebDAQ REST API example VI programs demonstrate how to connect with a WebDAQ device, retrieve the status of selected schedules, jobs, and alarms, and to acquire and display data.  All examples are ready-to-run.  These example programs were built and tested with LabVIEW 2015.  If you need to add/remove and/or edit channels, then all of those changes are done via the WebDAQ's web interface.

There are no other communications protocols available.
