How to use the OPC Toolbox with an OPC server that does not use DCOM

1 view (last 30 days)
I am trying to set up a connection between an OPC client (using the OPC toolbox) and a Profibus OPC server from the company Softing (Version 1.15). This OPC server does not show up in the list of available servers when I type:
hostInfo = opcserverinfo('localhost')
Therefor I also cannot setup a connection with this server. The problem probably is that this OPC server does NOT make use of DCOM. I have been able to set up communication with other servers that do use DCOM without problems.
Is there a way to set up a connection to an OPC server that does not use DCOM?
