You normally bind to the OPC value itself, but you can select from many other binding kinds, such as ErrorId, ErrorMessage, StatusInfo, (for OPC-DA) Timestamp, Quality, Vtq, or (for OPC-UA) ServerTimestamp, SourceTimestamp, AttributeData, StatusCode, etc.
How to configure this feature:
Bind the OPC item to your control as usually.
Then, use the "Edit Live Bindings" command on the control, and in the ArgumentsPath property, select the kind of binding you want.
