4.1 Configuration
The graphical configuration and diagnostic functions are bundled in
NuDAQ PCI card OPC server (NQOPCSvr.exe). That is, the user
interface of the NuDAQ PCI card OPC server is the configuration/
diagnostic window. You can use it to set up and maintain the OPC server.
It provides fields for specifying the properties of devices (NuDAQ PCI data
acquisition cards ), and items (channel or port on the device). You can
save the configuration to a file. The NuDAQ PCI card OPC server uses
the configuration file you loaded to operate with the devices. The NuDAQ
PCI card OPC server automatically loads the default configuration file
NuDAQ.cfg when starting.
The following sections will guide you through the configuration procedures.
