OPC DA Server Library
To support OPC DA connectivity in a Desigo CC system, the OPC library is required. It includes the data structures (OPC data models) for the OPC connectivity.
Location of the OPC Library
The standard OPC library that supports the OPC data models is located in Management View of System Browser at the following path: Project > System Settings >Libraries > L1-Headquarter > Global > OPC.
OPC DA Server Object Model
The OPC Server DA object model is available in the OPC library and supports the OPC DA server connectivity.
The OPC object model is located under the OPC library: OPC > Object Models > OPC Server DA.
