OPC client and server on the same node (local) OPC server client application (OPC client) fieldbus (local) OPC server FB Manager fieldbus PLC FB agent fieldbus PLC FB agent direct connection fieldbus connection can also be a point-to-point link client application (OPC client) proprietary protocol The OPC server is running all the time, as soon as at least one client is present I/O devices clients and servers run as parallel processes Accessing another node by DCOM TCP/IP wrapper DCOM TCP/IP OPC server DCOM TCP/IP OPC server DCOM FB Manager fieldbus DCOM client application (OPC client) Full-fledged OLE across multiple nodes OPC server for BrandY application 1 (OPC client) Fieldbus Y Fieldbus X drivers OPC server for BrandX OPC server for simulation panel application 2 (OPC client) The OPC servers supports multiple clients and servers on the same, or on remote nodes. they run as separate processes (as soon as at least one client is requesting them) OPC server for BrandZ TCP/IP TCP/IP input / output to plant Ethernet app3 node 1 connectivity node OPC technology Transport (TCP-IP, UDP, Queued) ActiveX (Distributed) Component Object Model (COM / DCOM) Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) Ethernet OLE for Process Control (OPC) OPC bases on Microsofts COM/DCOM technology (i.e. it only works on Windows platforms). Effort to port it to other platforms (Linux) and transport (XML) are in progress. Advantages are the direct integration into all applications, such as Excel. only between nodes OPC server structure OPC/COM Interfaces OPC Group Item Management Item Data Optimization and Monitoring Device Specific Protocol Logic Hardware Connection Management Example: ABB AC800 OPC Server Note that variables are defined in the server, not in the PLC.
