Only few (not all) standard parameters/blocks are accessible using USB-8486 FF modem

We have got USB-8486 FF modem connected to the device. We are trying to communicate with the device thru your OPC server using OPC client. We are able to get connected with device but it is observed that only few (not all) standard parameters/blocks are accessible using the same. Is this the limitation of the OPC server that it can not provide all parameters?

 

Thanks

There is no such limitation on NI-FBUS OPC server. Could you provide more detail information? Which parameters and blocks are not shown or accessible? Which device are you using?

Thanks  Vince!

We have conected a Micro Motion's Flow transmitter to USB-8486 FF modem. We use ICONICS OPC Client that communicates with device using NI OPC Server (NIFB_OPCDA.3 i.e nifb.exe). We are able to communicate with the device (refer attached screenshot). 

We are able to access parameters of the Resource and all function blocks. No parameter from Transducer block is accessible.
