Requirements

TWINCAT OI Server requires Wonderware Operations Integration – Core G-1.2 or later.

To communicate with TwinCAT PLCs and runtimes, you must have the TwinCAT Automated Device Specification (ADS) software installed and configured on the same computer where this OI Server is installed. The ADS software allows the computer to present itself as a TwinCAT node on the network, and this OI Server communicates with other nodes through it. The ADS software is installed as part of the full TwinCAT programming software, so if you already have the programming software installed on the computer, there is nothing more you need to do. Otherwise, you need to install and configure the ADS software separately. For more information, see Installing and Configuring the TwinCAT ADS Software at the end of this document.
