For now, keep the local data domain here on the Slave as default, the same as the remote data domain on the Master.


For the Data Flow Direction, choose “Read-write” to send data and receive data, or “Write-only” to just send data to the OPC client. Don’t choose “Read-only” because you will be writing data to the Master from the OPC server,


When the connection is initiated, when it first starts, you want to override the OPC client values with the Slave’s values, the OPC server data. So choose the Override option.


When the connection is lost, you want to mark the data quality for all points over there on the Master as “Not Connected”. So choose that option.
