Element Structure

The FP OPC Server allows the creation of a clearly membered hierarchical element structure that fits the nature of the application. The hierarchy consists of several layers: On the first layer, multiple communication channels specify the mean communication. The channels comprise multiple devices to specify the PLC and its station number. Devices can contain multiple tag groups to segregate tag data on a group-by-group basis. Devices or tag groups themselves contain the tag data.

A state-of-the-art import/export mechanism allow you to save, exchange or edit the data in the XML file format. Exchanging data can also be done using a CSV file. For further information, please refer to Import/Export Tag Information.
