Without standardization, the search for the causes of a machine's failures or errors can take a long time. Specialists are often required for the task. With a standardized diagnostic concept, you can display the condition of every machine on your screen and evaluate them quickly. That means you can quickly respond and reduce your downtimes.

OPC UA with TIA Portal V17

With TIA Portal V17, OPC UA offers you powerful options for secure data transmission and integrated machine monitoring. The Global Discovery Server (GDS) function supports a dynamic alignment of security certificates during ongoing plant operation. The Alarms & Conditions (A&C) function transfers alarms and status notifications to higher-level SCADA, ERP, MES, and HMI systems via subscriptions without a direct interface to TIA or SIMATIC components.
