Verify OPC UA certificate installation

Verify certificate installation

1. Open the certificate manager by typing certificate in the Windows search window, then select Manage Computer Certificates from the search results. The Certificate Manager opens.

2. Navigate the Trusted People folder and check that the OPC UA certificate has been installed.

   

3. From the OPC UA client node, open the Operations Control Management Console again, and select the Test Connection button in OPC UA parameters window. At the bottom of the window, the OPC UA Namespace alias list will be automatically populated, indicating the connection was successful.

4. Add a group under the OPC UA Connection. The device group name prefixes OPCUA_ to the group name you enter.

   

5. Select the Browse OPC UA Server button to browse the OPC UA hierarchy.

6. Optional: Add OPC UA tags to monitor in the alias list to help ensure that you can browse the namespace.

   

7. Switch back to OI Gateway configuration in the Operations Control Management Console, and notice that the OPC UA tags are now listed in the Device Items window.

8. By default, item names in the list duplicate the complete item reference path. Rename the items as needed to be more user-friendly.
