Bachmann electronic presents a fully integrated 'OPC UA Alarms & Conditions (A&C)' server for the M1 automation system.Alarms and status information from the controller and field level can be transferred from a PLC to other machines, operating devices, monitoring controllers or ERP systems, regardless of manufacturer or platform. The installable module detects critical values or status changes even without programming. In addition, the control logic can trigger alarm status changes via an API from the control program. All forwarded changes to operating devices, control stations or A&C clients are secure and can be optionally encrypted. OEMs can transmit alarms to higher levels via the A&C server. Authorized operators are thus able to react more quickly to changes at any level, with user actions visible on all networked systems. In addition, the 'Atvise HMI' visualization software and the 'Atvise Scada' control console package fully support the OPC UA server.
