OPC Servers Integrator

OLE for Process Control (OPC) creates a worldwide industry-standard for communicating real-time production information across all levels of the manufacturing enterprise. OPC gives production and business applications across the manufacturing enterprise access to realtime plant-floor information in a consistent manner, making multi-vendor interoperability and "plug and play" connectivity a reality.OPC Servers Integrator (OPCSI) It is a set of COM objects and interfaces that are used as an integrator to OPC data access servers, offers a tool for OPC programming. You don`t need to be a COM/OPC expert to use it. It integrates various OPC servers in heterogenous production environments and provides an interface to application developers using Visual Basic, Visual C++ or .NET. It has the following features: A middleware Between your applications and OPC servers. Detects, creates and manages all OPC servers in a networked environment. Uses user-defined names to access OPC server items. Provides Direct Access and Cache access to OPC servers. Uses a global shared memory to maintain shared OPC resources. Provides an interface to access any of OPC servers moparscape servers. Provides an interface to traverse the shared resources. OPCSI takes advantages of the OPC industry standard and hides complexity of COM/OPC programming. OPCSI speeds up development cycles, cuts maintenance cost, promotes increased operation Efficiency, and makes OPC resources sharing available in entire enterprise environment. OPCSI Overview gives a quick overview of OPC Servers Integrator (OPCSI). It also gives a comparison of interfaces between the OPCSI programming and direct OPC programming. Data Sheet gives a summary of features and benefits using OPCSI.
