Matrikon has an OPC Server for Foxboro and they also have software that
enables two OPC Servers to communicate back and forth.

Hello all,

I'm looking for a way(s) to get data from 3rd-party OPC servers into points
on
an I/A system.  I'd rather not buy an AW70, as we don't have any now and
are
looking to do this as cheaply as possible, but I don't have a problem with
something running on a generic PC and talking to a 51-series box.

I've seen 3rd-party OPC servers for the I/A, but no clients.  The only
client
I've come across is the one from Foxboro, but that requires an AW70, as far
as I
can tell.

The data is monitor-only and extreme robustness of the system is not
required
(if it were, I wouldn't be using OPC in the first place ;-).

Any pointers or, better yet, actual application experience in this area
would be
most helpful.

TIA,

Corey Clingo
