VisSim/OPC is an OPC client add-on to VisSim. Based on proven
Kepware OPC client technology, VisSim/OPC allows VisSim to connect
to any OPC server, including all Kepware servers. Using VisSim/OPC,
you can easily log data or run a virtual plant in VisSim for off-line
tuning or operator training.
Just Click, Wire and Go
To exchange data between VisSim and any OPC server, you simply
wire OPC Read and OPC Write blocks into a diagram and then click
the Go button. The OPC Read and OPC Write blocks let you read data
from and write data to an OPC server. Update rates and data exchange
modes are easily specified. You can also edit item names (including
data types and initial value), time bias, percent deadband, and
language ID. You use the OPC Server block to establish a connection
with the OPC server. You can create connections to as many OPC
servers as you require.
VisSim/OPC works with popular PLC/DCS equipment from companies
including Honeywell, Emerson Process, Siemens, and Allen Bradley.
