Not to confuse anyone else...OPC does run on V8.x
You must be a running a P92 with OPC I/O Gate.
Then it would be a AW70X (Integrator with control).
V8.x does not support AW70X stations.
Your OPC I/O Gate would have to be ported to one of the new FDSI FBM's to
run the OPC interface.
P92 could then be used as V8.1 AW70P.
Or just add a V8.x AW70P to host your ATS and leave your
7.x system intact to communicate to the Mesh.
Unfortunately not all migration possibilities are a fit.

I know it's confusing! :-)
Just because you have a P92 box that will run version 8.x
software, doesn't mean that it can. The fact that it runs
OPC software excludes it from running version 8.x, thus
being a boot host for the ATS's.
I was confused and wanted everyone else to be also.
