Communications

Modbus Data Connector

The OAS Modbus Data Connector allows you to connect directly to Modbus slave devices with the built in Modbus Driver Interface which supports communications over Ethernet and Serial interfaces with Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU, and Modbus ASCII protocols.

Allen Bradley Data Connector

The OAS Allen Bradley Data Connector allows you to connect directly to Allen Bradley controllers with the built in ABLogix and ABClassic Driver Interfaces which support communications over Ethernet to ControlLogix, CompactLogix, GuardLogix, and Micro800 with the ABLogix driver, and MicroLogix, SLC 500, and PLC-5 with the ABClassic driver.  The following steps can be used to setup direct communications with Allen Bradley controllers.

Siemens Data Connector

The OAS Siemens Data Connector allows you to connect directly to Siemens controllers with the built in Siemens Driver Interfaces which support communications over Ethernet to S7-200, S7-300, S7-400, S7-1200, and S7-1500.

MQTT Data Connector

The OAS MQTT Data Connector allows you to  connect to MQTT devices and software brokers with the built in MQTT Driver Interface

OPC Servers

The OPC Tunnel product allows an OAS Service to write values from any Tag Parameter to an OPC Item in an OPC Server.  This simplifies remote networking by installing the OAS Service at each OPC Server system and take advantage of the built in TCP communications in Open Automation Software.

OPC Clients

The OPC Client Connector product enabled unlimited local and remote OPC Clients to communicate with a licensed OAS Service. This design allows unlimited OPC Client connections while maintaining only one OPC connection to the local OPC Servers.

Also third party .NET data can be added to the real-time database using OPC .NET WinForm HMI .NET, OAS WPF HMI .NET, or OPC Mobile.NET, and read only data from databases of SQL Server, Oracle, or Access can be integrated with OAS Recipe.

Data from Microsoft Excel can be enabled for read and write functions using OAS Excel Connector. OPC Client Connector eliminates the need for remote DCOM configuration as all communications is performed using .NET, not DCOM.

.NET Applications

The OPCSystemsDataConnector product allows you to access data from the Open Automation Software real-time data service. This is done using the OPCSystemsDataConnector component in the OPCSystemsDataConnector.dll.

Microsoft Excel

The OAS Excel Connector product provides connectivity to Microsoft Excel Workbooks for both read and write functionality. The OAS Excel Connector can interface with Microsoft Excel 2003, 2007, and 2010.

Databases : SQL Server, Oracle, Access, MySQL and CSV

Using the Universal Data Connector product you can log data to SQL Server, Oracle, Access, MySQL, and CSV files based on event, continuously, time of day, or on data change.
