10.4 Configuring a WirelessHART OPC server
The WirelessHART OPC server for Fieldgate SWG70 can be easily configured with the pro-
gram "WirelessHART Fieldgate OPC Configurator", which is to be found on the data medium
supplied.
NOTICE!
• The "WirelessHART OPC server" function is only available on WirelessHART Fieldgate
models with the version "SWG70-xx-2". See Chapter 2.3 "Ordering information" on
page 11.
For information on operating the program see Chapter 10.4.2 "Configuring the
WirelessHART OPC server with "WirelessHART Fieldgate OPC Configurator"" on page 80. For
a description of the program see Chapter 10.4.3 "Description of the WirelessHART Fieldgate
OPC Configurator" on page 83.
