Hi all list,

I am trying to install an aim* OPC server DA on a windows 2003 server PC
(hostid=opc_test). It should retrieve the real time data from an AW70 (Win
NT) which has installed AIM*AT.

During the installation of the OPC software on the opc_test I have installed
also the aim*api admin tool in the same PC. Starting the api admin tool I
should find the AW70 host id in the server list (because of broadcasting).
But I did not find it. I can ping the two PCs so I can be sure that there is
connection between them. Even configuring the data server connection
manually in the "EDIT SERVER CONNECTION" button of the opc_test machine, I
cannot see the AW70 in the server list.



Is it because I have still not licensed the opc_test in the AW70?

If I open the authorization tag by using the api adm of the AW70 (which has
aim*at server installed) it does not appear the package name "OPCDAO" which
I have in the opc_test. I think there appear only the packages installed on
the machine. BUT I HAVE TO LICENSE THE OPC SERVER WHICH IS INSTALLED ON THE
OTHER PC. How can I then license, in the data server, the OPC (opc_test)
machine?

After licensing that, user accessing, security etc as written in the manual,
will I able to see the RTPs of the AW70 by using the matrikon opc explorer?



Please help me.



Thank you to all



Daniele
