You can customize the way Plant SCADA communicates with the OFS system by creating or editing the [OFSOPC] section of the Citect.ini file for your project. However, the default values for these parameters have been determined by driver development and testing to be optimal for the OFSOPC driver.

UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION

  • Do not under any circumstances change or remove any of the undocumented citect.ini parameters.

  • Before deleting sections of the citect.ini file, confirm that no undocumented parameters will be deleted.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Note: Always seek the advice of Technical Support personnel for this product regarding undocumented features.

When Plant SCADA starts at runtime, it reads configuration values from the Citect.ini file stored locally. Therefore, any OFS configuration settings needs to be included in the Citect.ini file located on the computer acting as the I/O server to the OFS system.

By default, Plant SCADA looks for the ini file in the Plant SCADA project \bin directory. If it can't find it there, it searches the default Windows directory.
