following steps.
1. Start RSLinx software by double-clicking the RSLinx icon on the
desktop or by clicking the RSLinx Communication Service on the
system Service Status toolbar
.
2. In RSLinx software click the OPC/DDE menu, and choose Topic
Configuration.
3. Select the topic in the Topic List.
The topic has to correspond to the correct controller path. If not,
set the correct controller path in the communication path
browser.
4. Click Done.
