CygNet OPC UA Server
CygNet provides an OPC Unified Architecture (UA) Server, an application which exposes real-time and archived CygNet data to an OPC UA Client application using the OPC UA (OPC Unified Architecture) specification, version 1.04. OPC UA is a secure, open, reliable mechanism for transferring information between servers and clients.
The CygNet OPC UA Server adheres to the OPC UA specification, which is a service-oriented architecture that integrates all the functionality of the individual OPC Classic specifications into one extensible framework.
The CygNet OPC UA Server 1.0 operates with CygNet v9.5 or later and CygNet Bridge v4.4.121 or later.
This chapter provides an overview of CygNet’s OPC UA Server, an architectural diagram, the typical workflow required to install and operate the OPC UA server, terms and concepts relevant to CygNet and OPC UA, security information, information about how to install and configure CygNet Bridge and the server, and how to generate and maintain the OPC UA address space.
Also see the
CygNet OPC UA Server User's Guide, which provides the same content as is available in the main CygNet Help in PDF format.
