It is possible to manually install D2000 OPC Server within an existing D2000 installation or to install it using an external installer.
Prerequisites
D2000 OPC Server requires an installation of "OPC Core Components Redistributable", which is available at http://www.opcfoundation.org.
Manual installation
The D2000 OPC Server must first be registered in Windows as an OPC server. Registration is done from the command line. The D2000 OPC Server registers by default as Ipesoft.D2000.OPCSserver.opcserver.
...
- Optional step (if the default name Ipesoft.D2000.OPCSserver.opcserver is not acceptable): copy opcserver.exe under a different name (e.g. myprogram.exe). The copied program should be located in the same subdirectory (bin or bin64) of the D2000 installation directory as the original opcserver.exe.
- Starting the OPC server registration: starting the program with the parameter -RegServer e.g.
opcserver.exe -RegServer
or, if step 1 has been performed, running the copied program, e.g.
myprogram.exe -RegServer
- It is now possible to run the Windows utility dcomcnfg (Component Services) and verify that the Ipesoft D2000 OPC Server is registered (selected item in the image):
- Then continue creating the D2000 user, which is described in the Configuration chapter.
...
Removing the OPC Server is the same as the removing of any program installed in the operating system Windows.
- From the Start menu -> Settings select the item Control spanelpanel.
- Open the window Programs and features. In the list select the item Ipesoft D2000 OPC server - <server_name>) and click the button Remove.
