Beware, basis my experience with OPC interfaces to Foxboro V6.x/7.X systems
via a few different means, OPC does not end up being near as reliable as
desired.. The problem can be due to how well the OPC client or server is
written, how well they play together, DCOM, MS Windows problems, load
issues, etc. A lot of times we never new we had a problem except that we
noticed that something was not changing.

Thanks for all the replies, you are correct Dave, OSI just informed me
that the API interface was on the way out, and they are pushing OPC.=20

You may want to check with OSI their position for long term support of =

the API interface. At one time they were trying to move away from =3D
support of that Foxboro interface and head towards OPC.

Hey folks,
Got a project in the works to add a PI historian to the site, there
appears to be several ways of connecting PI to I/A.=3D3D20
We have a small installation, two WP51B (ver 6.3), one AW51B (ver 6.3),
and one AW51F (ver 7.1). The F box is already running Aim* =3D
historian.=3D3D20
What would be the best connection, Fox API, Aim API, or Aim OPC on a
windoze box?
Thanks
