hi, is there anybody konw the communication between Labview and eurotherm PC3000 using itools opc server ?
I want to use Labview to control eurotherm pc3000 using itools opc server (Ei Bisynch). I try to create some tags in itools opc server for the inputs or outputs in pc3000. But I don't know how to construct these tags in itools opc server and I don't know the format of the address for these tags.
Is there anbody can help me ? Thank you very much.

Hello hustmeng2004,
Did you read the OPC server help provided with this NI tools? (Start>>all programs>>National Instruments>>OPC Server>>help).
It help you to use this tools.
To create tag, launch OPC Server, right click on the right board and add new tagg.
For the adress you can configure it in the same dialog box.
For the communication with your instrument using LabVIEW and OPC, the best advice I can give you is to read the numerous tutorial provided on our website. For exemple: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3978 or http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3224#toc2

hello Romain Duval
Thank you very much for your reply. The problem is that NI opc server does not include the protocol of EI-Bisynch. So I think it could not exchange with PC3000 even if I create some tags.
I want to use Itools opc server because it includes the protocol of EI-Bisynch but I don't know the format of address of the tag. Do you know that ?
