| Applying OPC-UA as a Competitive Advantage Webcast |
| Invalid Date/Time GMT |
| Spend an informative hour with OPC-UA Industry leaders and experts as they present a complete understanding of OPC-UA and demonstrate how quick and easy it is to configure an OPC-UA solution.
OPC-UA was designed to easily move information from the factory floor to the enterprise by leveraging existing OPC specifications and integrating them together. Web Services is the key technology enabler for the new architecture and enables deployment of widely dispersed applications across LANs, WANs, Intranets and the Internet.
Tom Burke with the OPC Foundation will discuss the background on OPC-UA and how its adoption into the marketplace is going. He will also highlight how the OPC Foundation recently started to allow OPC solution vendors to release products based on the technology. Experts predict that by the end of this year, you will see several vendors with products in the marketplace based on OPC-UA technology, including products for the embedded systems marketplace and products that support information exchange between control systems and IT. This Webcast will also highlight what to look for when selecting an OPC-UA solution.
Roy Kok with Kepware and Russ Agrusa with ICONICS will review the latest OPC-UA clients and servers available and demonstrate the first integrated, end-to-end OPC-UA solution available in the marketplace. The “ICONICS OPC-UA KEPServer” combines HMI/SCADA and visualization with a rich library of device connectivity from Kepware. This OPC-UA, 64-bit solution handles several different I/O devices and is certified for Microsoft Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008. The solution is truly OPC-UA-To-The-Core™ and uses Web Services technology, making it simple to integrate plant floor visualization with Manufacturing Intelligence and Enterprise solutions.

| DCOM problems with Windows XP SP2 known Microsoft bug |
| 2nd November 2003, 01:01 GMT |
| It has been discovered that DCOM problems may occur in Windows XP Service Pack 2 after some installations. This is a known Microsoft bug. Please read the app note to fix this problem.
Symptoms:
Machine boots and immediately starts acting strange: the start menu and task bar either don’t work or act strange, applications won’t dock to the task bar, DCOMCNFG (amongst other programs) won’t work, and applications won’t talk to each other. In general, the machine gives the appearance of a virus attack or total corruption.
Cause:
After the Windows XP SP2 upgrade, the DCOM Default Launch permissions may not be correct (and possibly corrupted). This might not show up until a specific set of events happen (possibly such as editing the DCOM settings in a specific way) after the upgrade occurs.
