Ah. Thak you. That worked.

you can specify the provider in the parent path. [myprovider]. If you leave this off it defaults to the default provider.

The tag provider that I’m using is called “Test” and the OPC device is called “My_test”.
I’ve tried both of the following items for the OPCItemPath

[Test]1.D1000
[My_test]1.D1000

It seems no matter what I put in there I get the following error:

[code]Traceback (most recent call last):

you wouldnt use the tagprovider in the opc path, only the parent path.
