The Add/Modify OPC Group dialog box is where you can add a new group to a server displayed in the OPC Driver - Group Selection dialog box, or modify an existing group. Any groups you add using this dialog box are automatically displayed in the list on the Group Selection dialog box. A group is automatically enabled after you add it.
The fields available for configuration on this dialog box are the same whether you use the Add New Group button or the Modify Group button on the Group Selection dialog box; the only difference is that the button you click determines the title of the dialog box.
This dialog box is the same as the properties viewer for groups on the GE OPC Client Power Tool. This provides you with the same configuration fields, allowing you to bypass the OPC Client Power Tool. However, group information that you add or change in this dialog box is automatically updated in the Power Tool.
NOTES:
- Changes to a server can only be made in the OPC Client Power Tool.
- Some OPC Servers do not allow group names to be changed. An error message is displayed if this is the case.
For detailed information about configuring OPC Client groups, refer to the OPC Client driver online help.
