Active OPC Server Lite

Dynamic IP/WAN Connection
Automatic Tag Generation
Unlike the fixed IP requirements of Ethernet I/O with a traditional
OPC server, Active OPC Server Lite and ioLogik products provide the
flexibility of configuring the ioLogik to use dynamic IP addresses.
The ioLogik connects directly to the Active OPC Server Lite instead of
being polled, which makes dynamic IP addressing and WAN Access
to the Ethernet I/O device possible, and adds even greater flexibility by
allowing connections across firewalls. I/O devices for traditional data
acquisition applications are not capable of using this approach.
Active OPC Server Lite and ioLogik series products support “Auto Tag
Generation,” which eliminates the headache of specifying target IP
addresses, I/O channels, and data formats one by one, or editing and
importing configuration text files, since Active OPC Server Lite creates
the tags for the target ioLogik automatically. Simply select the channels
that you need to update, and the tags are generated and configured
automatically. Generally speaking, tag generation is 50 times faster
with Active OPC Server Lite than with traditional OPC server packages.
One of the biggest payoffs is that users will no longer need to be
trained to install and configure your OPC.
