Hi, I would like to create real-time graphs, using data from a web-server.  
The data is displayed on a table. Is it possible to get graphs using your service?

Do you mean extract data from a web server somewhere and use emonCMS to display the graphs?

If that is what you mean, emonCMS is really designed to _accept_ data that is sent to it, and then store and display it. If the web server cannot send the data itself, you need a means to ‘scrape’ (extract) the data from the table, convert it into a format that emonCMS can accept, and then send it to emonCMS.

Are you using emonCMS on your own server/Raspberry Pi, or are you using [emoncms.org](http://emoncms.org)?

Thanks for the reply.  
I currently use Arduino with the portal [emoncms.org](http://emoncms.org).  
But I’m also using a datalogger to read the data coming from 24 digital wattimeters. This tool saves the data and shows it on a web page in a table. But I would like to display this data on a graph like those on [emoncms.org](http://emoncms.org).  
Do you think I could use a Raspberry to do this?

I think you could, but I’m not a Raspberry Pi expert so I cannot tell you how to get the data.

Is it possible to program the datalogger so that it can send to emoncms directly?

The way to send data to [emoncms.org](http://emoncms.org) is given on the website itself - “Inputs” → “Input API Help” .
