Connect third part opc client to labview

[CantonKen]

I have no experience with Labview.  I need to connect a third part opc client to get data from Labview 8.5.  When I run the OPC Explorer and connect to the local server I see the data items.  However if I run the free OPC explorer from matrikon it does not find any OPC servers.  I see Variable Engine running in services.  Lookout 6.0 is set at manual and is not running (I don't know if I need this).  This computer is located in another country on the other side of the world and I only have RDP access.  What am I missing?

Many Thanks

Hello, 

Are you using the DSC module?  With the DSC module you can add a 3rd party OPC client and bind your variables through that. 

Here is a screen shot.
