Specifying Connection Properties for the OPC Server in
Project Engineering

When using OPC, communication connections are established and managed by
the OPC Server. As a result, you create the communication connections only for
the “OPC Server” application.

How to create a connection for PC applications is described in Section 13.6.

If a connection is created for the OPC Server, the properties dialog for the
connection includes an additional tab, “OPC - Properties”.

The dialogs shown below for the various protocols provide you with an overview of
the possible settings; in these examples, the parameters have their default
settings.

Please note that the parameters are described in detail in the online help for each
individual dialog in NCM PC.

Notice

Changes to the default parameter settings should only be made by specialists.
Changes can lead to unexpected situations and cause major system disruption.

After changing parameters, they must be downloaded or exported and the import
of an XDB started.
