I forgot to add under 2) If the system is V8.x based, you should use the OPC DA Client FBM to bring data from another system into the CP. The media is: K0173XD The FBM is either: FBM 231 - non-redundant Ethernet FBM 232 - redundant Ethernet The software license is covered in the CP license as gateway points. Hope this helps.

If we need to gather Real-Time data from IA-NT to third party networked OPC-clients, do we need Q0301UT from Foxboro?=20 2. If we need to connect OPC-DA Real-Time Data from third party OPC-Servers to Foxboro's IA C:B.P variables (and used in control scheme inside IA), do we need Q0301HG or Q0301HT? What is the difference between them? 3. Is there a package which offer OPC Client and Server functionality for IA-NT, at the same time?

Put the AIM*OPC DA Server on the client machines and use NetAIM*API to connect to the source AW (AW70 or AW51). This is equivalent to Matrikon's "OPC Tunnelling". Why do it? Easy - the setup is much simpler - no DCOM. Worth the time and money, I promise.
