Set up DeltaV
To connect to the DeltaV OPC Server it must be available on the machine where XLReporter is installed. However, in some cases, XLReporter must be installed on a non-DeltaV node on the network where the OPC Server is not running.
To overcome this and gain access to the OPC Server, install the DeltaV OPC Remote application on the machine with XLReporter. This can be found on the DeltaV installation CD in the DV_Extras folder.
Once this is installed, when browsing for local OPC servers, the DeltaV OPC Server will appear.
