Hello Mikhail,

Thanks for the reply.
I got it work as the posts #8942 and/or #8943….(it’s not TCP/IP ports, it’s IP address)

(It has been notised that there are a lot of posts about TCP/IP ports, would be better the installation execution file can check if those ports are free.)

Thanks again!

Steven

Workaround solution:

1. Install RapidSCADA fully on both A and B computer

2. On A computer(on which there is OPC server),
a. Create a new communicaiton line
b. Create a new devie
c. Create new Input channels and output channels
d. Create new communication line in Instance

all above can do them according training videos

Local OPC on local server( A computer should work now)

3. repeat the save steps on B computer
or copy all files from A to B (did not test, but must work)

4. copy all the files in the fold SCADA\ScadaComm\Config
from A computer to B computer

5. Stop ScadaServerService on A computer
6. Stop ScadaCommservice on B computer

7. Change Common Parameters (server) to B computer IP address
8. Change Connection Settings (server) to A computer IP address
9. Upload

Done

On A computer, IP: 192.168.10.111
Edit ScadaCommSvcConfig.xml in the fold: c:\SCADA\ScadaComm\Config

<CommonParams>
<Param Name = “ServerHost” value = “192.168.10.106” (was 192.168.10.111)

Keep all the other the same

stop ScadaCommservice, start ScadaCommservice

On B computer, IP: 192.168.10.106
Instance–>Default–>communicator–>[2]OPC–>[21]OPC Demo
three tags are there, and updating
Instance–>Default–>communicator–>[2]OPC–>Line Stats–>Active Device 1. Device 21 “OPC Demo”: Normal

However:

Instance–>Default–>Communicator–>[2]OPC–>Line Parameters–>Request Sequence–>Properties–>OPC server got “<No available servers>

Should Call Number or host name be 192.168.10.111?

Best Regards

Steven

Hi Mikhail/scadakid,

Could you please make an instruction how to integrate OPC DA/UA remotely?
Also how to add a new instance?

Thank you very much!
