Ethernet shield Coding

Dear all,
I am starting new project using Ethernet. I need step for executing web server application. I have Certain data to be monitored on web server.
I have these many data to be monitored on webserver

  1. date and time
    2)latitude
    3)longitude
    4)Desired angle
    5)actual angle
    etc
    Action to be control:
    Motor forward and reverse
    value to be change:
    1)date and time
    2)angles
  2. limit of wind speed.

Question :

  1. is it possible to do using web server application??
  2. Basic steps for configure web server
    3)How to create our own control tags. see youtube 2

Sheild i am using.

Here i have added one video where we can fine any change in analog value also change in web server. How to make it. Is there any software available to create tags.

Testing code

byte ip[] = {192,168,7,12 }; // This is typically 10.0.0.x

Server server(80); // Port 80 is http.

  1. is it possible to do using web server application??

Most people could.

  1. Basic steps for configure web server

The Arduino doesn't need "configuration". It need programming.

3)How to create our own control tags. see youtube 2

You can't. The "control tags" are standard HTML tags.

I have attached basic Setup i made. I have connected the shield and uploaded example Web server program. I could not able to read anything on ethernet. Is possible to tell what mistake i am doing

I am using LAN connection between PC and Ethernet shield , WIndows7 OS. I am not getting any data.

Try this test code. It uses dhcp to get an ip and the other network stuff. If you don't understand the results, post them here and I'll see if I can help you.

#include <SPI.h>
#include <Ethernet.h>

byte mac[] = {  0x00, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF, 0xFE, 0xED };

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);

  // disable SD SPI
  pinMode(4,OUTPUT);
  digitalWrite(4,HIGH);

  Serial.print(F("Starting ethernet..."));
  if(!Ethernet.begin(mac)) Serial.println(F("failed"));
  else {
      Serial.print(F("IP: "));
      Serial.println(Ethernet.localIP());
      Serial.print(F("Subnet: "));
      Serial.println(Ethernet.subnetMask());
      Serial.print(F("Gateway: "));
      Serial.println(Ethernet.gatewayIP());
      Serial.print(F("DNS server: "));
      Serial.println(Ethernet.dnsServerIP());
}

void loop() {
}

edit: My bad. I forgot the includes. I added them.

Server code that supplies the arduino analog pin output to a web page.

Dear all,

I am new to programming with Ethernet shield. I have setup like below.
Arduino UNo board, windows 7 OS
Ethernet shieldhttp://www.rhydolabz.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=152_151&products_id=877
web server Example code from Arduino v1.0.5.
I have connected Ethernet port of shield to Ethernet port of computer.

Code compile properly.But i could not able to connect web server

/*
  Web Server
 
 A simple web server that shows the value of the analog input pins.
 using an Arduino Wiznet Ethernet shield. I have attached how i configured ip address . 
 
 Circuit:
 * Ethernet shield attached to pins 10, 11, 12, 13
 * Analog inputs attached to pins A0 through A5 (optional)

You setup your shield with IP 192.168.7.100:

IPAddress ip(192,168,7,100);

but try to access it with IP 192.168.7.12

Why are you trying to access another IP than the one you applied to the shield?

I will reply to the post you started in Networking. It belongs there.
edit: I see a moderator merged both subjects. Thanks! :slight_smile:

Try this sketch. It tests the SPI bus and the SPI end of the w5100. Does it show 192.168.2.2 on the serial monitor? If it shows anything else, like 0.0.0.0, then check the shield connection to the Arduino. Insure all pins are inserted into the sockets.

#include <SPI.h>
#include <Ethernet.h>

byte mac[] = {  0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF, 0xFE, 0xED };
IPAddress ip(192,168,2,2);

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);

  // disable SD card if one in the slot
  pinMode(4,OUTPUT);
  digitalWrite(4,HIGH);

  Serial.println("Starting w5100");
  Ethernet.begin(mac,ip);
  Serial.println(Ethernet.localIP());
}

void loop() {
}

BTW, the dhcp example I posted in Programming wouldn't work if you are connected directly to your PC. It doesn't have a dhcp server set up on that interface. That would have been helpful to know.

Finally i made i work webserver.
2nd question over here is how to access over internet.?

I have connection setup like below
I have network switch 5 port.

LAN NETWORK connected to server to switch. port 0
PC Ethernet port goes to same network switch, port 1
Ethernet shield from arduino connected to network port 2

all networks are on same hub. Let me know How to configure for Below setup . I am using Windows XP operation system.

Is that a switch or a router?

Do you have a commercial account (static IP) with your ISP? If not commercial, it is probable that your ISP blocks certain ports, like port 80 requests from the internet.

@ present i have connected to switch . Where my server mentioned connected to modem.

I have similar set up as shown in image. But all device connected to switch 5 port.

From Model one LAN connection goto switch port 0
from PC one LAN cable connection goto switch port 1
from Ethernet cable goto switch port 2.
And all under same network.
Question are:
1) how to configure IP address for all, I have made test run for static ip address. connecting directly Ethernet shield and Ethernet port of PC . which is working fine
2) How to control LED in below example. Individually the code working fine.
3)How to keep option to change date and time here. Which can replicate in web server.
