I think that an easy import/export for comm links would be handy.  I know there is a way to copy the file but I cant find it... Ive been looking through the forum but still cant find it.  Every time I set up a new PC, I have to manually put in 100 links.  It gets rough.

Look in the public documents folder for the SOURCE version.  If it's 2.10, it will be
C:\Users\Public\Documents\Do-more\Designer2_10\Bin\DMDComm.rst

If it's a different version, browse to that folder below Do-more's Public Documents folder.

Then just copy that file to the other PC in the same (or newer) version folder.

When I originally wrote it, the file was CommServ.rst, and it's in the BIN directory of the DmD installation. I say originally, because some of the files have been renamed over time and I'm not in a position to check the name right now. I'll confirm when I'm back in the office.

Great I found it!  Thanks!!!

I have seen this request in previous posts, and maybe its a long shot, but I have noticed that click has come up with protocol modules (OPC UA) to interface in a secure way directly to the PLC from aquisition software. Our SCADA currently supports a hundred protocols but shy of MQTT there are no secure protocols that we can use so we are stuck with either a broker, a router to do the encryption TLS and other methods but it would be nice to have something from the PLC directly to other software without a middle man.  Do you guys have anthing planned for secure protocols?

We will be launching OPCUA and Sparkplug B POMs later this month.

Amazing! I will be anticipating the release!
