2572-DDS2 Ethernet DDE Server

The 2572-DDS2 DDE Server is a Microsoft Windows compatible program that allows DDE client applications to access data stored in 2500 Series™ PLCs. The server communicates via TCP/IP to a 2572 or 2572-A TCP/IP Ethernet Adapter module installed in the PLC rack.  NOTE: 2572-DDS2 IS NOT SUPPORTED FOR WINDOWS VERSIONS AFTER WINDOWS XP, AND IS NOT SUPPORTED FOR WONDERWARE VERSIONS ABOVE V8.0.  FOR COMMUNICATIONS SERVERS FOR WINDOWS 7 AND WONDERWARE 9 OR ABOVE, WE RECOMMEND CHANGING TO CTI 2500-OPC KEPSERVEREX OPC AND COMMUNICATIONS SERVER.
