Remarks

OpcDAPropertyDialog is a modal dialog box; therefore, when shown, it blocks the rest of the application until the user has chosen an OPC property. When a dialog box is displayed modally, no input (keyboard or mouse click) can occur except to objects on the dialog box. The program must hide or close the dialog box (usually in response to some user action) before input to the calling program can occur.

General

Icon:

The OPC-DA Property Dialog (DAPropertyDialog class) allows the user to interactively select the OPC property on a specific OPC item.

Use the ServerDescriptor property to specify the OPC Data Access server whose items are to be browsed, set the NodeDescriptor property to the OPC Item Id needed, and then call the ShowDialog method. If the result is equal to DialogResult.OK, the user has selected the OPC property, and information about it can be retrieved from the PropertyElement property.

Advanced

If you want to change the parameters of the client object the component uses to perform its OPC operations, you can use the ClientSelector Property.
