Sorry about the title, it's hard to sum up my question in succinct enough form.

In this system I'm designing, there will be a PC running OPC server that communicate to various serial and Ethernet devices in several protocols. I'll also have a iFix HMI machine and a process historian running on separate PCs.

In the past we always bought the standard IGS server that works with iFix, however, since we will use an OPC server already can I just point the iFix to the OPC server on the other PC and eliminate the need for the IGS driver?
