 Going Beyond Raw Data with your OPC Server
The TOP Server’s new Advanced Tag plug-in lets you do so much more than just read the raw values from your PLC. Advanced Tags let you use your tags to create information, by providing Math and Logic Function ability to any tag in TOP Server. Because the TOP Server has so many drivers, you can even use tags from different devices to create the resulting values you need. With the new OPC DA Client driver you can even bring in values from other OPC Servers and provide it to your OPC or SuiteLink Clients. Great for use with client applications that don’t provide easy ways to make these calculations. Don’t script in the client, use the TOP Server Advanced Tag Plug-In and simply point-and-click instead!
