Setup Lookout to send data to OPC server

Is it possible to configure Lookout so that an OPC server can read all of the tags configured in the running Lookout application? For example, I have Lookout running on a machine communicating with several PLC's. I would like an OPC server (exisitng on this or another machine) to be able to browse and read all datamembers and their current values that I have created in my driver objects. I would need polling updates every few seconds.

Lookout itself has an OPC Server, called LookoutOPCServer, which can export all the datamembers of objects in current Lookout process.
So, an OPC client can connect to LookoutOPCServer and read/write all the datamembers.
Take a look at this KB.
