Zeus,

Have you tried using the Express Communications Wizard? If not then select the Citect Project Editor then go Communication -> Express Wizard.

If it is a new project you will probably want to create a new I/O server and I/O device. Select an 'External' device and then from the drivers list select Drivers -> OPC Foundation -> OPC Server -> OPC. For the address you
will need to know the server name string.

This should be all there is to it.

Cheers,

Kelvin
