Lets say that hypothetically I’ve got a text file full of comma seperated variables that I want to display as an XY plot with a simple little html file.
Can this be done? What’s the easiest/simplest way to do this?
Can you use javascript in this controller?
easiest way is to graph with excel, get a jpg of the graph, and embed it…unless of course this needs to be realtime graphing with values that are constantly changing
then it becomes far more difficult
Naw I’m trying to look at data without using excel.
Mike javascript would be a possibility. What I’m specifically talking about is using a SLC-500 BASIC module to dump data to my hard drive, then take a quick & dirty look at it.
Check out the link to RRDTool that I sent you
Also, check out the Cacti project http://www.cacti.net/
I use Cacti at work to trend server data in realtime, it’s slick, but it’s basically just RRDTool with some other built-in functionality.
