Features

• Allows multiple applications to share a single SCADA communication network or connection
• Ideal for report by exception communications such as SCADA over Dial-up telephone Modbus master devices can poll the virtual PLC's from the field. OPC clients poll the virtual PLC for exception reports from the field devices
• Supports Half-Duplex (RTS/CTS flow control) and associated timing
• Extended addressing option allowing addressing of up to 65534 field devices
• Automation interface for use with client programs developed with Visual Basic including applications such as Excel incorporating Visual Basic for Applications
• Custom interface version 1.0 for use with most HMI/SCADA Host software and OPC client programs developed in C/C++
• Browsing of the server address space
• DCOM support allowing access to SCADA data by multiple clients over the LAN

Overview

SCADAServer is an OPC (OLE for Process Control) server that manages communication between products from a wide range of vendors. This powerful technology provides makers of HMI software and custom application developers with seamless communication to field hardware, including Control Microsystems' SCADAPack PLCs.

As a process control server SCADAServer manages both OPC data servers and OPC clients. The OPC data servers form the interface between custom protocols or hardware, and HMI software or custom applications. The OPC clients are the programs that use the data and provide control information to field devices. Clients can include Control Microsystems' TelePACE and IEC 61131-3 development environments, TelePACE Firmware Loader, and the RealFLO gas flow computer applications as well as many other third-party products. The OPC Automation interface also allows clients such as Visual BASIC and Delphi applications to access the OPC server.

SCADAServer Host auto detects LAN or serial connections with no flow control or RTS/CTS flow control. Dial-up serial ports are also supported.

The SCADAServer Host supports all of the following protocols found in the TeleBUS suite:

• Modbus/TCP
• Modbus/UDP
• Modbus RTU in TCP
• Modbus RTU in UDP
• Modbus ASCII in TCP
• Modbus ASCII in UDP
