Data source connections
To monitor the status of data items, or read or write their values, connect to the data server that is hosting the data items.
Once connected, create a group and add items to it. All items in a group must come from a single type of data server. For example, group data items from various
RSLinx Classic
topics, or from various FactoryTalk View
HMI servers. Grouping data items together from both an OPC DA server and a FactoryTalk
server is not allowed.
IMPORTANT:
If you are already connected to a data server, and want to connect to a different type of data server, save the groups you are monitoring. Connecting to a different server deletes all of the current groups.
