Iff the interface is strictly HTML, then it can be do-able using streamDevice, but it can be tricky, too. If the device has layers of pages to get through before the data of interest is available, then it gets very difficult. I did this with a simple device once, and it worked fairly well. When we purchased another ostensibly identical device, it failed, and I never got it working because the 'HTML' data was sent using Javascript that drew dots like a dot matrix display on the web page, so it would look like one of those 4 line X 20 character LCDs that was one the physical front panel of the device.

It says that communication is done with the HTTP protocol  - is this significant? Would it be doable for me to make an IOC that uses let’s say StreamDevice to communicate with this?
