Configuring Device Group Definitions
The Device Groups tab in the DAServer Manager user interface is used to create a new
device group or modify or delete existing device group definitions for an object. For
DDE/SuiteLink communications, one or more device group definitions must exist for each
PLC that the DAServer will communicate with.
Each device group (topic) definition should contain a unique name for the PLC associated
with it.
Device Group Definitions
The Device Groups dialog box, which is displayed by clicking the Device Groups tab in
the Parameters configuration view, is used to perform the following activities:
• Adding, defining, and deleting device groups.
Note: When you add a new device group, enter a unique name.
• Configuring default update intervals.
• Editing update intervals for the objects.
Note: When you select another part of the DAServer tree hierarchy, you are prompted to
save the modifications to the configuration set.
