OPC-enable your .NET or COM applications with QuickOPC. Access OPC-DA, OPC-A&E and OPC UA servers with ease, and without previous knowledge of the OPC standard.

Developer API

• Integration with Visual Studio development environment.
• Wide range of developer productivity features: Intellisense, contextual help, ReSharper annotations, serialization support, and many more.

Internals

• Multi-threaded, non-blocking OPC library design for high performance.
• Internal messaging layer provides isolation between OPC communications and the custom OPC client code, resulting in high resiliency.

• The OPC library has no hard-coded limits to number of connections, subscriptions, or tags.
• Intelligent OPC Group parameter optimization.

On The OPC Side

• OPC client functionality tested for compliance with OPC protocol standards and interoperability.
• Automatically connects to and disconnects from OPC Servers.
• Automatically adds, removes and maintains OPC groups (subscriptions, in OPC-UA) and monitored items.
• Automatic server status checking, detection of connection problems and server failures, and automatic reconnects.
• Maintains OPC client state and reconstructs the internal state of OPC server after reconnection.
• Supports all flavors of OPC synchronous and asynchronous reads and writes internally, subscriptions, discovery, browsing, and property access.
• Multiple independent OPC server connections.
