Hi, Stefan is working on an OPC UA client in FORTE. A first version is availble FORTE's git repo in the OPC UA branch. He was also so kind and wrote new docs for it. Please have a look at the attachment of this issue [1] in the issue tracker as we havent yet integrated it into the web page.
i hope this helps to get you started.

BTW if you have a Siemens ODK PLC it should be possible to directly run FORTE on the Siemens PLC and use the ODK API to communicate with the S7 program.
