Full Range of Controller Types Supported
OAS supports a wide range of Siemens controllers through native Siemens S7 driver integration. This includes:
S7-200
S7-1200
S7-300
S7-1500
S7-400
This provides optimized performance and simplified setup using familiar Siemens PLC software and Siemens SCADA tools.
Reliability
Adjustable timeouts and automatic recovery processes maintain reliable connections scross the Siemens OPC server. If a network failure occurs, the system automatically switches to a backup controller. These features maximize uptime in Siemens SCADA and Siemens IoT gateway deployments.
Direct I/O, Memory, and Data Block Access
Directly access Inputs, Outputs, Memory Bits, Variable Memory, Counters, Timers, and Data Blocks using absolute addressing through the Siemens PLC driver. This simplifies advanced Siemens PLC applications and custom automation applications.

High-Speed Performance
The platform supports high-speed parallel processing with updates as fast as 15 milliseconds. It manages up to 1,000,000 tags per server, delivering the throughput needed for high-performance Siemens HMI software systems.
Data Accuracy
OAS processes data using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. This ensures no data is skipped, making it ideal for Siemens IoT gateway, OPC UAserver siemens, and historical SCADA applications.
Common Siemens OPC Server Applications
Logging Data to Databases or CSV Files
Use the OAS Data Historian to log Siemans S7 PLC data into SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, and other databases. Configure logging based on data changes, scheduled events, or continuous actions. The system also supports high-speed buffered data logging from reliable historical records. Learn more.
Data Transfer
The Data Route feature transfers data between Siemens S7 controllers and various Industry 4.0 systems. It supports continuous or event-based transfers. The platform also functions as a secure Siemens gateway, enabling smooth communication across your local area network (LAN), wide area network (WAN), or the Internet. Learn more.
User Interface
Create Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) for Siemens PLC data using the cross-platform UIEngine without coding. It includes drag-and-drop tools and supports Web Trend and Web Alarm support.
OAS supports WinForm HMI, WPF HMI, and Web HMI, as well as programmatic access through the .NET Data Connector and OAS REST API. These options allow you to seamlessly integrate Siemens data with your existing legacy applications. Learn more about the UIEngine
