Re: [foxboro] Legacy Historian connectivity?


We have done a lot of legacy historian work back to Excel. Works really
well. Even use the Data Poke add-in that comes with Data for Windows.
Problem comes in when we tried to grab data and stick it into Access. Had
to try and write two queries, first one was with MS Query then go to
Access. Did not work well and abandoned this.
Thanks
Troy

I'm investigating my options for connecting a proprietary Windows
application to a I/A Series Legacy Historian running on Solaris. =20

I've been told by Foxboro that the AIM*OPC Server won't work with the
Legacy Historian, but they mentioned the Datalink application, and
providing an ODBC interface.

A big part of my research is making my client-side code as standard as
possible, to avoid rework in the future, and I've also looked into a
Matrikon OPC Server for GDA(ODBC), given the above information regarding
Datalink.

Has anybody implemented a project that involved interfacing with the
Legacy Historian.  Obviously, I'd be doing read-only, no write or
control.
