Tip!
When accessing a bus server via a network, please bear in mind that:
In order to protect a computer from unauthorised access, the default DCOM safety settings do not allow
OPC access. Check the DCOM settings for the bus server concerned and change them, if necessary.
For details, please refer to the DriveServer – Getting Started" documentation.
4. Click the button Refresh to update the list of available OPC servers.
Tip!
The program distinguishes between normal" OPC servers and OPC bus servers:
·
Configuring OPC servers (Data Access 2.0) is usually a difficult and time−consuming process.
·
OPC bus servers (DRIVECOM) have been optimised for use with GDC/DriveServer and therefore
require only a minimum configuration.
We therefore recommend the use of OPC servers that also display bus server features (presetting OPC
options:
þ Bus server (DRIVECOM) ).
5. Use the list field Available OPC servers to select the suitable OPC server and close the dialog
box OPC with Ok.
6. Close the dialog box Select communication driver with Ok.
GDC configuration as an OPC client is now complete.
