Using AC 500 together with Compact HMI 800

When using Compact HMI 800 together with AC 500 the Control Builder and OPC
server should be installed on the Server node.
It is recommended to use the ModBus TCP driver in the Compact HMI 800 to
access the AC 500 controllers. When setting up the communication please note the
following:
- Make sure that you use the same network mask in the AC 500 as in the
Compact HMI. 800, i.e. 255.255.252.0.
If you are using the AC 500 OPC Server please note the following:
- The OPC servers should be set (in dcom config) to always be running as the same
user, as the user running the AC 500 control builder. This is done by logging in as
SysAdmin and then follow the following steps.
1. Open the Windows start menu and select Run, in the window that opens, type
"dcomcnfg.exe".
2. The application for configuring security for components opens up.
3. Move down to find the Component OPC Server for CoDeSys...
