Application Tutorial

3.1 Objectives

In this lab, we will configure an Extended Modbus OPC Server database and add a device
to it. We will use this database to download the PIDLAB Strategy from the previous lab to
the MOD 30ML instrument.

We will also populate the OPC database with tags using the Modbus Interface File (.MIF)
created in the previous lab and monitor the data by reading them from the instrument
using the built-in OPC Client of the Extended Modbus OPC Server.

After completing this lab you should be able to:

• Configure a Extended Modbus OPC database
• Download the Instrument document (strategy)
• View the signals using the built-in OPC Client
