Open Automation Software announces a new level of secure OPC Connectivity for SCADA Systems
Evergreen, CO, USA – February 16,
2011 –Today Open Automation Software announced the release of OPC
Systems.NET Enterprise Version 4 with enhanced OPC Connectivity, and
security, designed to provide full user friendly support for
SCADA systems and Human Machine Interfaces ( HMIs). The new
release of the Open Automation Software’s platform provides full
support for 32 and 64 bit Windows operating systems exponentially
expanding the amount of real-time data supported from each server to
1,000,000 tags.
The OPC Systems.NET Enterprise
solution is specifically designed with the needs of the End-User in
mind to integrate business application systems with plant floor
production data. The GUI Interface provides a user friendly environment
that enables End-Users with the ability to set and control the range of
tags from 100 to 1,000,000 per server. Continuing a tradition of
providing flexible and open solutions, Open Automation Software
incorporated a distributed multi-server design in the OPC Systems.Net
Enterprise solution that provides full functionality and support for
Microsoft Windows Operating Systems such as: Windows 2000, XP, Vista,
Server 2003-2008, and Windows 7 (32 Bit and 64 Bit).
Unlike other HMI SCADA software, OPC
Systems.NET Enterprise implements a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)
to deploy scalable solutions which leverage the power of the network
communications functions built into the Microsoft .NET Framework.
This unique SOA design also enables the platform be the first true
“Smart Client” SCADA solution on the market today. End-Users benefit
from having an HMI, trending package, and alarming package all in one
easily deployable bundle. This combination of functionality eliminates
the additional costs of add-on software as data transfer and
manipulation needs grow. Everything that an end-user or OEM needs is
already included within the OPC Systems.NET Enterprise software package
providing the ability to be an agile and scalable solution that enables
system growth.
“The problem that many plants face
today is turning data into useful information quickly, at a reasonable
cost, and on mobile devices. By getting the important real-time
information to the right individuals each critical decision can be made
with confidence by knowing the current real conditions of any system in
your plant or facility. By choosing a flexible, and scalable,
product like OPC Systems.NET Enterprise End-Users can easily implement
and deploy solutions quickly with little or no programming experience.”
said Ken Eldridge, President of Open Automation Software.

locations, and mobile devices via a built-in 128 bit TCP/IP security
feature.
