#ICONICS GENESIS 32 HOW TO INSTALL ROCKWELL OPC SERVER DRIVERS#

Iconics on the other had was what I was remembering. So there really was no remote OPC with RSLinx. Each station was running RSLinx OEM and had identical OPC topics on each computer. I looked back into some project files and what the project had was 9 stations running Iconics. I should have made the disclaimer about sketchy memory bigger and bolder. I'm not sure about the workgroup requirement either as both pc's I tested this with were in the same workgroup. The configure browser tab allows you to select other networks in addition to the local network.

If you highlight the computername the list of configured drivers will be updated and allow you to pick which driver you'd like to use. Selecting browse will find all RSLinx Gateway machines (that have the enable box checked). The driver selection tab (shown below) is where you'd enter the computername/IP address of PC 'a'.

Add a new driver and configure it for 'Remote Devices via Linx Gateway' (way at the bottom of the driver list on mine). On your client computer (PC 'b') all you need is RSLinx Lite (free). Note that you will have to shutdown and restart RSLinx to have the gateway option take effect. This is all that has to be done on PC 'a'. There is another tab that will allow you to configure a client access list to only allow the computername/IP addresses in the list to access the gateway. All that really has to be done is to check the box to enable RSLinx gateway (it's the only thing on the tab). On the computer that will run RSLinx Gateway (PC 'a'), assuming you have installed the activation for gateway, go to Communications>Configure Gateway.
