
Log & format the data in Detail or Table mode

Collect data by Subscription, Timer or Trigger
Tags are constantly
polled, but logged
only when values
change!
At pre-determined
intervals the data is
requested and
logged.
The data is
requested and
logged only when a
trigger is raised.
You can even combine multiple read methods!

Mix-n-match ALL of the above scenarios
What is a Writeback?

Write to the OPC Server when an Event or Trigger in the OPC
Data Logger occurs


These Events include

Database Connection going Offline

Database Connection coming Online

After every log to the Database
Similar Events for Text/CSV Files


Opened, Closed and after every log
Trigger Types

Scheduled, Recurring, Monitored Item
New Features in v 3.5.0.34

Support for OPC Unified
Architecture (UA) standard


Connect to an OPC UA server
Support for security certificates
What is UA?



Unified Architecture
A collaborative working effort of the
OPC Foundation and its members
since 1994
Objective to create a standard that




Isn’t dependent on DCOM
Can interoperate with non-Windows
platforms
Is more secure than the original OPC
Removes redundant code across
interfaces
Value Point #1 – Common
Interface Usage
Common Interfaces=
Less Programming=More Products
An example of how a “Read” is consolidated

Value Point #2 - Security
UA Server(s)
UA Client(s)
Security - Certificates




Digital Certificates are used
for safe identification
A Certificate can represent
a UA Server and UA Client
A Certificate can represent
a Person (login)
Trust lists control access
Connect

Profiles
What is a Profile?

An identifiable block of
Why Profiles?

functionality that is
supported:

Methods needed

Information Model, i.e.
Type(s) of Data being
moved


Protocol & Security
“Data Access” is an
example of a Profile, as are
all OPC Classic interfaces


Profiles tell clients and
servers what UA services
and information models
are available.
UA Products can decide if
the other has the
capabilities desired
Most UA developers are
doing the DA profile for
now in products on the
street
