Connecting to OPC servers and DDE servers
To connect to a wide range of local and remote devices, install and
configure the appropriate OPC or DDE server. For details about
configuring the server, see your server documentation.
To change the OPC node’s server name and access path or the
application and topic name for the DDE server your project will use,
use the NodeSwitch command or use the Node editor.
For details about the NodeSwitch command, see Appendix A,
RSView32 commands, or see Help. For details about the Node editor,
see Chapter 3, Setting up OPC and DDE communications, in the
RSView32 User’s Guide.
Step 6 – Changing the path to files outside the
project directory
If your project references files outside of the project directory and the
path to these files has changed (for example, the drive letter has
changed), use the Project Paths dialog box to update the path.
For example, imagine your project directory is C:\Norm’s Bakery but
you have stored graphic files in C:\Gfx. You move your project from
C:\ to D:\. The paths to the files in \Norm’s Bakery are automatically
updated, but the path to \Gfx is not—you must update the path in the
Project Paths dialog box.
To change the path:
1. With the Project Manager active, click Project on the menu bar,
and then click Project Paths.
