OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) is a platform-independent standard
with a service-oriented architecture for communication in and with industrial
automation systems.
The OPC UA standard is based on the client-server principle and lets
machines and devices, regardless of any preferred field bus, communicate
horizontally among each other as well as vertically to the ERP system or the
cloud. LioN-X provides an OPC UA server on field device level, with which an
OPC UA client can connect for information exchange secure in transmission.
For OPC UA, we comply (apart from the exceptions listed
) with
the IO-Link Companion Specification, which can be downloaded from
Manual EtherCAT®
