DASYLab – Standard Driver

Note: If your system has more than 16 channels, you will need to put an additional

DataSocket Import module on your worksheet.

3. Configure a channel; steps 3(a) through (f).

DataSocket Import Setup

3(a) Select the channel that is to be configured. Note that a green socket indicates the channel

for which selected options will be applied. In the previous figure, channel 0 is selected.

3(b) For the connection Type, select OPC.

3(c) Click on the <Select Item> button.

DASYLab will search the computer registries and list every OPC server program that
resides on your computer.

3(d) Locate and expand the OPC Server Software identifier (see following figure). In the

figure we selected KEPware.KEPServerEx for the Kepware OPC Server Software. In
addition, we expanded Channel 1 to show PointScan104 and its associated tags (Temp1
and Temp2); as well as PointScan204 (not shown in its entirety) to show its associated
channel tags (Temp3 and Temp4). You would need to scroll down to see Temp3 and
Temp4.
