Software:
Artista Remote Control Service (ARCS) Service for Windows- or Linux based Client-PCs to read operating parameters via http-request from any PC of the network (returns XML-file). Software source code is available with GPL license.
Please consider:
Artista Remote Control Boards can be delivered in combination with a TFT display only, because for correct function the ARCB has to be configured for the corresponding TFT display.
For projects the ARCB and the appropriate configuration software can be supplied separately.
