use OPC UA Server with external clients

Post by Chris D »

Hi,
I know the integrated OPC Server. How can I access this Beijer OPC Server from external clients. I tried a demo client from softing that found the opc server but I could not browse tags.
Any ideas, or other possibilities?

Regards
Chris

Hi Chris, I tried OPC communication between 2 T7A panels and it worked fine.
What hardware and soft did You use (download link)?

Hi Wal,

thanks for your reply. I have a standard - non beijer - 3rd party OPC client. For test reaonss I used matrikon and softing (http://industrial.softing.com) demo clients. The final goal is to run the iXruntime on a pc and to run a 3rd party OPC client on the same pc connecting to iX OPC Server.

I hope my explanation helps

regards Chris
