I need a little help. I'm new to PLC programming and utilizing OPC communications.
I have a system in which an Allen Bradley SLC 5/03 is connected (serially) to a PC with RS View 32 installed on it. I want to connect the RS View to another PC with OPC client/server software installed on it (via an ethernet connection).
First, I want the RSView to act as a client and read tags on the OPC PC.
My question is what do you select in RS Linx (single node) to configure a driver? Also, do i have to do any setting up of the network prior to configuring RS linx (mapping the drive, etc?). I'm utilizing Winbdows 2k (professionsl) on both machines.
Thanks!
