Hello, I admit this is a really tough subject you may spend a lot of time with. First of all I would recommend to you to try this document, which is part of the WinCC flexible CD. You may find it at the directory: <your CD Drive>:\CD3\Support\OPC\ Check it out. Best regards J_Bell AttachmentOPC_via_DCOM.pdf (218 Downloads) |

Dear ahmedmae94, Sorry to interrupt the discussion how do you configure communication between the WinCC flexible Runtime and WinLC via Softbus on a PC? WinAC RTX -- Configuring and programming communication -- Configuring communication to S7 What connections are there between the version designations in WinAC RTX? Best regards, Wizard |

Dear ahmedmae94, Perhaps this link, might give you some information about the difference between WinAC and WinAC RTX: http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/6919918 Well, instead of using PLCSIM OPC, you could use WinAC RTX as a CPU to connect to. The WinCC flexible RT 'Server' could connect to WinAC RTX and should be an OPC server for the other WinCC flexible RT 'Client'. Best regards, Wizard |
