ESP8266 wifi + advancedHMI

[hypnotize]

I am using the ESP8266 wifi IC that sends simple TCP strings to my PC with a known port. I can catch these strings and print them with a simple C# program.
My question is, can I use AdvancedHMI without any PLC connection, but still be able to use one or two of the gauges to update from the data I send to the TCP connection I have with the ESP8266?

thanks

When you add a Gauge or other component it will automatically add a drive to the form, but if you do not put anything in the PLCAddress*** properties, it will not use the driver. You can then use code to put what you want in the Value property.
