The remote measurement system can be constructed by using a Ethernet LAN. The technical features of this system are using CGI and LabVIEW as a programming development environment. Personal computer(PC) based measurement system using GPIB and RS-232C for instruments is controlled by LabVIEW, and is incorporated with the LAN. The PC that acquires measurements functions as HTTP server, which is a software technology included with LabVIEW, so that the other PC as a client requires only a Web browser for remote monitoring. When the client PC sends a remote user request whose URL specifies a CGI application for measurement, HTTP server decodes the request and executes the application. The application generates measurement date and returns it to the server. The server then sends a reply as HTML document that contains this data to the client, which displays it via a Web browser.
