Cannot seem to control an FP-PG-522 Module with Lookout.

I have a system consisting of FP-1000, 5 ea. of FP-AO-200, 1 ea. FP-AO-210, and 1ea. FP-PG-522. I can control the FP-PG-522 from Fieldpoint explorer, but I cannot seem to control it with Lookout. I want to output a frequency of 10 - 500 Hz. on each channel.

There are two methods for controlling a FP-PG-522 from Lookout. The first method, which is valid with any version of Lookout, is to use the FieldPoint OPC Server. Any tags that you have created within FieldPoint Explorer are available to the OPC Server.
The second method, is only available for Lookout 4.5.x, and is documented on pages 14 and 15 of the Lookout 4.5.1 Release Notes, is to use the PGPG (number of pulses yet to be generated after current pulse), PGPS (boolean value indicating state of physical outputs), PGSI (stop pulse immediately command), PGSA (stop pulse generation after current pulse) and PGGP (number of pulses to generate) datamembers of the FieldPoint Object.
