UMS is comprised of the Universal OPC
Server (UOS) and the Micristar.PRO device profile. The UMS mnemonic
is used to identify this unique combination. UOS will also support many other devices that
use serial communications. Please refer to our web site for the current list. |
|
UOS is a stand-alone OPC Server that can be used
with any OPC compliant Client such as Intellution’s FIX® or FIX Dynamics®
or OA’s Enterprise Automation software. UOS has many advanced features like:
DataView, DataScope, Serial and TCP/IP communications support, and multiple
"different" device support. Please refer to our web site for more information on
UOS capabilities. |

Use this command group to MONITOR the Process Variable (PV)
for a specified Loop number (Lp.#). Format Value: Depends on the rage in use. |
| PV_SP |
Use this command group to MONITOR the Process Variable (PV)
and Setpoint (SP) for a specified Loop number (Lp.#). Note that all variables are read
from the same loop. Format Value: Depends on the range in use. |
| PV_SP_RO |
Use this command group to MONITOR the Process Variable (PV),
Setpoint (SP) and the Reverse Output (RO) for a specified Loop number (Lp.#). Note that
all variables are read from the same loop. Format Value for PV and SP: Depends on the
