We at KLG Systel are developing a new product which is powered by Intel © atomTM. As OPC is a standard for the communication of real-time plant data between control devices from different manufacturers. We have chosen Prosys to implement OPC ua support. Before purchasing the SDK, we carried out Proof of Concept and their product support team helped us.

Benefits of OPC UA within our product

  • Ease of use.
  • Plug and play.
  • High reliability and redundancy based on new standards of authentication, authorization, encryption and data integrity.
  • Enhanced performance.
  • Multiplatform support with Java communication stacks.
  • Easy migration plan for existing OPC products to the OPC UA technology.

Prosys OPC SDK for Java

  • Prosys OPC UA SDK for Java is an easy to use Java aPI, which has an abstraction of complexities of OPC Foundation Java Stack.
  • The response time of PRoSyS product support team is outstanding.

What is OPC?
