Description

When the OPC Quick Client is launched from the server, it automatically generates OPC groups and tags for a channel, device, tag group, and internal server group that contains Static Tags. This may make it difficult for users to locate and monitor a specific group and tags in a device. The OPC Quick Client that installs with KEPServerEX V5 includes an option to disable the automatic generation of paths with leading underscores. For more information, refer to the instructions below. To start, open the OPC Quick Client. Next, click Tools | Options from the main menu. Then, check Ignore browse paths containing leading underscores when auto-building . Once finished, click OK .
