OPC Data Access

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The OPC Data Access Specification is the first of a group of specifications known as the OPC Specifications.

OPC Data Access is a group of standards that provides specifications for communicating real-time data from data acquisition devices such as PLCs to display and interface devices like Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI). The specifications focus on the continuous communication of data.

There is a good multimedia tutorial that explains both OPC Data Access and OPC Historical Data Access, available from MatrikonOPC.
