What it does
  • Eliminates the need for an additional OPC server by connecting Modbus slaves directly to the DataHub.
  • Tunnels Modbus data from your plant OT network to the IT network without exposing the plant to security risks.
Benefits
  • Easy and complete configuration of Modbus TCP slave connections.
  • Combine with other DataHub features like data logging, WebView, DDE, to optimize the value of your Modbus data.
The DataHub® Modbus OPC Server supports the following features and operations
  • Connects to any number of Modbus TCP slave devices.
  • Connects to any number of OPC server and client programs.
  • Automatic Modbus ↔ OPC protocol conversion built-in.
  • Supports SSL encryption for better security.
  • Easy configuration through manual point-and-click or XML file import.
  • Supports DataHub Scripting.
  • Supports asynchronous socket multiplexing in Modbus TCP to share one TCP connection with multiple Modbus devices. This eliminates cross coupling between client timeouts and provides client timing independence.
