OPC Scada Viewer - displays and visualizes OPC data it in real-time with help of various indicators.
For Windows 2000 - Windows 11 (2022) (incl. Server, x86 and x64). Latest version: 2.0.0 build 1207. December 9, 2024.
Brief description:
The family of the OPC software technologies is a unified interface for controlling automation objects and technological processes. Most gauges, monitoring and control devices nowadays have OPC servers that can be used to obtain the current data. OPC Scada Viewer supports the primary and most widely used OPC DA1 and DA2 standards that allow you to exchange data with programmable logic controllers, human-machine interfaces, computer numerical controlled devices, and other devices in real-time.
What problems can be solved with OPC Scada Viewer?
OPC Scada Viewer allows you to easily and very visually display data received via the OPC interface. Data is displayed in real-time, which allows you to use the program for permanent control and monitoring in various systems. OPC Scada Viewer offers many indicators for displaying the values of OPC tags, from simple analog pointer indicators to charts and diagrams. It is possible to customize every indicator separately for your needs.
A good example of using the program is replacing a large and cumbersome SCADA in a system where it is necessary to only control and monitor and where there is no need to send any commands back.
Getting started is easy. OPC Scada Viewer is ready!
After the installation process, you may immediately watch your OPC data. Please, add a new tab and place a new visualization block with an indicator.
Features:
Retrieving data from one or several OPC servers simultaneously. You may configure the program to watch data from several OPC servers on one screen.
OPC DA and OPC UA. The program can retrieve data from all major OPC types: OPC DA 1 and 2, which are old and proven, and OPC UA, which is modern and allows easy data retrieval from remote servers via Ethernet or the Internet.
Displaying the value of OPC tags with the help of a wide range of indicators. The list of indicators includes analog and digital indicators, gauge, scale and level indicators, matrix indicators, graphs with history values, charts and much more.
Different indicators for different types of OPC tags. All indicators are divided into groups, that are depended on a supported data type: logical values, strings, integers, and fractions.
Customizable visualization parameters for each indicator. Most indicators allow you to configure color and font type, limits and others.
Creating several tabs with different sets of indicators. Tabs allow putting together several indicators as a group.
Background image. Using any image as the background image for indicators, that allows linking an indicator to a specific point of engineering process.
Visual and sound warnings. Visual and sound warnings when an OPC tag exceeds the specified limits allow you to attract operator attention in critical situations.
Feedback. It is possible to write values to OPC servers. For example, you can rotate switchers for BOOL values.
Scripts. Multiple VB scrips for each visualization block.
Scaling. OPC value scaling using a user-defined expression like COS(X)+10.
Automatically controlling a connection and keeping it alive. This function allows controlling the OPC server and try to restore the connection to the OPC server when the connection is broken.
Various OS. The program works on all Windows versions starting from Windows XP SP3, including servers and x64.
