how do I acces opc item properties in Lookout

[cosmin]

I'm trying to view timestamps for different opc items

If you enable the datamember of the OPCClient object for logging to database, then the timestamps will be stored. You can then use a sqlexec object to retrieve the data and timestamp you desire.

Enabling a datamember for looging, it will log that data with the system timestamp, not with the true timestamp (date of the aquisition). If i view data in a hyper trend i see data versus system date. All I am interested is if I can recreate a citadel with old data and timestamps in Lookout.

As I understand OPCLabview is OPC2.0 compliant. Is there a way in Lookout to access opc item properties, such as timestamp? (In Lookout I connect to OPCLabview, vi-based server)

[Mike S. @NI]

Lookout is a OPC 2.0-compliant server and OPC 1.0-compliant client. You will not be able to access that time stamp in Lookout. Our LabVIEW DSC SW, on the other hand, is 2.0-compliant both as a server and a client.
