How to get data?

So hard to find docs...

My question is:

What is the right way to get instruments data in Venus OS (not in Venus OS Large with Signal K) in:

  • server PHP script?
  • client JavaScript?

How to existing web interface gets data? It's built on PHP, right?

Not sure what you are trying to achieve.

What you are interacting with through the Venus UI (directly on the touch screen or via http) is not a web based environment, It is an embedded operating system built on Linux.

I would describe it in terms of layers; data collection; data processing and data presentation. If you are trying to get new data into the system then you will need to consider all three of these layers, and have considerable programming skills. Any firmeware upgrades will need any modifications you make re-applying and might even break them.

If you are trying to extract the data, then the VRM Portal with it's API or Venus Large is the way to go.

This community forum dose not have the skills or resource to help. Further searching of the web will be required to understand how those three layers work within the Venus OS.
