Hi,
I am working for project execution where I need to get Data from RSView 32 to Wonderware, both are installed in different PCs in same network.
I have RSLinx Professional in the PC where RSView 32 has been installed.
Can I configure RSLinx professional as a OPC server to get datas to Wonderware. Can anyone guide me in this regard.

I don't know how is the setting in the Wonderware, but I can guide you to the step of setting up the RSLinx OPC server.

1. Goto DDE/OPC>Topic Configuration... Make a new Topic in the RSLinx
2. Make sure the new Topic you make point to your targeted PLC and click done.
3. Test your RSLinx OPC server using the OPC Test Client (It should be installed in the same directory with your RSLinx)
4. Create a new file using and select RSLinx OPC Server
5. Add new Group and then add new Item
6. Under the Add New OPC Item browse to the Topic name your just created earlier
7. Browse to the online tags and you should see all the tags name in your targeted PLC will shows up
8. Select one of the tag and you should see the value change according to the real value on your targeted PLC

I think the Wonderware setting should be similar to how we set up the OPC Test Client.
