OPC Security
The amount of data required to complete a task is different for each level
of personnel in your plant. The control system engineer might require having
full read and writing access to all points in the automation system while an
operator might only require access to a few points in the system in order to
view the status of a machine and control it. This might be the same case for
those at the management level - personnel at that level might only require read
access to key performance data items.

Wireless OPC Solutions
Wireless monitoring of instrumentation sensors such as temperature,
flow, pressure, voltage, current, levels, weight, speeds, revolutions and others
is a common requirement in the control industry. The term 'wireless' is used for
any system used to transfer of information over a distance without the use of
electrical conductors or 'wires'. The distances involved may be short (a few meters)
like with a television remote or long (thousands or millions of kilometers) for
radio or satellite communications. Wireless OPC solutions exist to meet all needs.

OPC in the Wind Power Industry
Standardizing data access with OPC provides a better way to manage wind
performance and control assets. OPC products that gather high-resolution,
real-time data give the end user the ability to analyze and improve the
operation of the wind farm. Also, OPC provides secure open connectivity
between Wind Turbine Controller and the decision-making points making it
the main building block in Green and Renewable Energy initiative.

OPC Dynamic Recipe Loading
OPC, the de facto standard for vendor neutral data sharing, makes it possible to
get the most from the relational data available in the form of OPC DA. Dynamic Recipe
is a common challenge for the batch industry today. There are simple, low-cost, small footprint,
standards-based solutions that enable process engineers, integrators and IT Professionals
to build a reliable system. By standardizing on OPC-DA, the solution stays open and flexible,
regardless of the PLC, Database or HMI vendor.

OPC Solutions in the Power Industry
Accessing information at the right time is critical; where are the process
bottlenecks, how effectively is the equipment being utilized, and what are
the major causes of downtime? To get this information, networks are being
deployed to reach controllers and plant floor devices which store this kind
of data in their memories. Leveraging new networking technologies and OPC
architectures has made this job easier than ever and has provided the power
industries with new, up-to-the-minute, information at much lower costs.

OPC and I2G - Many Standards, One SmartGrid
The SmartGrid represents a wide range of technologies. It is the future of
electricity systems that connects all supply, grid and demand elements
through an intelligent communication system. The success criterion for the
smart grid initiative is ability to securely open connectivity between all
of the current data sources and decision-making points including homes and
businesses utilities.

OPC Reduces DCS Migration Project Risk
As Distributed Control Systems, age manufactures often face higher maintenance costs
and issues with discontinued hardware, limited software upgrades and spare parts.
Many legacy DCS systems lack the reliability and functionality of newer systems and
no longer meet the changing needs of industry. The end result is typically a project
to migrate the legacy control system to a newer automation control platform.
