Enhanced OPC DA Connectivity & Platform Improvements – AdiLogiX 2.6.0

Highlights of Update - V2.6.0

  • Enhanced multi-protocol communication architecture improves internal system coordination, enabling smoother coexistence of OPC DA with industrial communication protocols such as BACnet, Modbus, OPC UA, MQTT, and others within a unified automation platform.
  • Optimized configuration and monitoring workflows provide a more intuitive system setup experience, improving navigation, simplifying device configuration, and enabling faster system deployment and monitoring.
  • Improved background data acquisition stability enhances communication reliability for S7 and Omron PLC devices, ensuring consistent data collection and reducing the risk of interruptions in industrial data processing.
  • Enhanced runtime and designer data handling ensures more reliable real-time data updates, improving the stability and synchronization of live data delivered from data services to visualization and application layers.

New Features

End-to-End OPC DA Platform Support

Version 2.6.0 introduces complete OPC DA support across the entire platform, enabling seamless connectivity with OPC DA servers used in industrial automation systems. This integration allows the platform to communicate with legacy and modern systems while maintaining compatibility with existing industrial protocols.

Real-Time OPC DA Data Communication

The platform now supports real-time reading and writing of OPC DA data, enabling continuous data exchange between devices and applications. This ensures reliable communication and accurate data flow for industrial monitoring and control systems.

OPC DA Data Service

Historical data logging for OPC DA tags allows users to store and analyze past operational data for trend monitoring, analysis, and performance reporting. The system can also generate alarms based on OPC DA values, helping operators quickly detect abnormal conditions and respond faster to critical events. Additionally, users can view live device connection status and real-time OPC DA tag values directly in the configurator for better visibility and monitoring.

Dedicated OPC DA Configuration Module

A new OPC DA configuration module has been added in the Configurator to simplify the process of adding and managing OPC DA servers. Users can organize servers and configure associated tags through a structured and user-friendly interface.

Network-Based OPC DA Server Discovery

The system now supports automatic discovery of OPC DA servers on the network, allowing devices to be identified and connected quickly. This significantly reduces manual configuration and speeds up system setup.

Automatic OPC DA Item Discovery

Connected OPC DA servers can now automatically expose available items (tags) to the platform. This feature enables faster tag configuration and reduces the risk of manual configuration errors.

OPC DA Data Integration with Runtime Visualization

Runtime dashboards can now display OPC DA data in live trending charts, allowing operators to monitor real-time process values and observe trends for improved decision-making and system monitoring.

OPC DA Event Support in Designer Workflows

Designer now supports OPC DA-based events across multiple workflow components, including Query Designer, Set Value functions, and the Condition Editor. This allows developers to build automation logic and UI interactions directly based on OPC DA data changes.

Subscription and Polling Data Collection

The platform supports both Subscription (Change of Value) and Polling mechanisms for OPC DA data collection. This allows users to choose the most efficient method depending on the device capabilities and application requirements.

Improvements

Enhanced Multi-Protocol Communication Architecture

The internal communication architecture has been improved to ensure smoother integration and coexistence of multiple industrial protocols within a single platform. Protocols such as OPC DA, BACnet, Modbus, OPC UA, MQTT, and others can now operate more efficiently together, providing better interoperability and stable data exchange across different industrial systems.

Streamlined Configuration and Monitoring Workflow

Configuration and monitoring workflows have been optimized to provide faster setup, clearer navigation, and a more intuitive user experience. These improvements help users configure systems more efficiently and monitor devices with greater ease.

Improved Stability for PLC Data Acquisition

The stability of background data acquisition processes has been improved, particularly for S7 and Omron PLC communication. This enhancement ensures more reliable data collection and minimizes interruptions in industrial data processing.

Enhanced Reliability of Live Data Updates

The system now provides more reliable handling of continuous live data updates that are delivered to Runtime and Designer modules. This improvement ensures smoother real-time monitoring and better synchronization between data services and visualization components.
