Version 6.0
OPC Property Viewer
The properties button at the bottom of the OPC Server Configuration dialog box will open the “OPC Property
Viewer” and display the properties for the selected point.
The individual property extension, description and variant type are displayed.
These properties were configured automatically by S
3
for inclusion by the OPC server when the point was created
within the Port Configuration process.
In the above example, because it was an intelligent addressable device, it has a great deal of data indexed to
it.
Simple analog or discrete devices will have far less available data.
note
Individual properties of an “Active” device cannot be made inactive.
note
