Hello everybody,
i try to explain my problem.
i have a customer's device that can generated a wifi network. this device stays in access point mode and i know the name of the wifi network ad the IP (static) of the device. i can connect to the device via tcp/ip protocol. this device can comunicate with external device (i hope also with my cRIO) by exchanging data in the form of json packet
i have a compact RIO (9075) that is connected via ethernet to my pc. i want to know how my Rio can connect to the customer's device through its wifi network to exchange data. now i have made these hypothesis:
1) using a gateway hub in order to connect cRIO network and the device network..but i don't know how i can set the connection from cRIO. cRIO knowns the name of device network..but how can rio start and exchange data through it? does cRIO drive a gateway hub or a modem?
2) using a third part device (arduino (SP32??), something else that now i ignore) ad connect the third part to the network device. what is the best way to set up this configuration?
3) using a lowcost NI hardware such as cDAQ with wifi module
Can someone share his/her experience? What is the best way to realize this kind of connection?
Thanks
