OPC to Linux Systems

How do you share data between Linux and OPC?

The OPC DataHub can connect to any OPC Server and make this information available to other DataHub programs over a network connection. We call this a 'mirror' connection because the data is mirrored between the two DataHub programs. The OPC DataHub in Windows is designed to mirror data with the Cascade DataHub in Linux.

• Share OPC data with programs in Linux.
• Linux programs can read and write data from multiple OPC Server at the same time.
• This allows you to access OPC Server support from your Linux based applications.
• There is one common data set mirrored between the two DataHub programs.
• Point-to-point bridging in the OPC DataHub helps you easily associate points in the OPC Server with points in your Linux applications.
• DataHub scripting allows you to modify data as it passes through the DataHub, in either direction.
