How to read values in ThingWorx?

I am trying to read some values from an OPC server into Thingworx. Until now I have made the connection between OPC Aggregator and Thingworx Composer following the steps of the industrial connections: http://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx_hc/thingworx_8_hc/en/#page/ThingWorx%2FHelp%2FComposer%2FIndustrialConnections%2FIndustrialConnectionsExample.html . So the connection status is ok and I can reach the tags inside ThingWorx, although I am not aware of the next steps to read the values in Thingworx when they change in the server. Do I have to create a java scrip or do something else?

If everything was successful and running, you should see the values of those properties change correct?

If not please check your Application Log for errors

So what next steps are you looking to take?

Did you create properties on a remote thing and bind the tags to those properties?

That would be the next step
