Hello,
I would like to know if there is documentation somewhere that covers how to create an OPC Client Connection using C/C++ to the Ignition OPC-UA Server. I have a need to make a client application that connects to a special data analizer card as well as connecting to a Siemens S7 PLC to access just two tags and then generate an Excel file from the collected data from the two systems. I would like this client application to be in the C/C++ envirnoment since it is a unique hardward interface requirement. I have used the Ignition software several times in the past for standard SCADA/Data collection off of PLCs and just used the Ignition UI to do this, but now I want to use just the OPC-UA server feature and make a client connection into that from another development environement. I have read that Ignition is suppose to be able to do that, however I have not found any details of how to to it. I just need access to two tags.
Thanks,
James
