WebFaqtory OPC/DDE Servers.

WebFaqtory OPC/DDE Servers are full featured OPC Level 2 Compliant Servers, written to run in the Microsoft .NET Framework. These Servers are primarily meant for the WebFaqtory SCADA application but are applicable for all OPC/DDE requirements. As a service to the Automation industry, WebFaqtory is offering the previous versions of our Servers completely free with no time-outs or other limitations.

All WebFaqtory OPC/DDE servers are designed to be as simple to use as possible. Unlike all other OPC Servers that use a Generic User Interface, WebFaqtory OPC Servers are designed from the ground-up for the target DCS/PLC. This means that WebFaqtory OPC Servers have the absolute minimum of configuration options with as many defaults as possible created automatically i.e. Groups, Memory Addresses etc. Additionally, all WebFaqtory OPC Servers come with a built-in software emulation of the target PLC. This enables users to configure and test their OPC configurations without having to be connected to an actual PLC.

The current version (version 3) of the Server is the result of over 1000 installations and feedback from the previous versions. The latest version of the Server is now the most capable and easiest to use OPC/DDE Hostlink Server available with support for upto 50,000 Tags, OPC Alarm & Events and much much more, all for just $99.95. An order of magnitude cheaper than any other OPC Server on the market. The Server runs in Microsoft’s .NET Framework and takes full advantage of all the latest features available in .NET.

Our previous versions of the OPC/DDE Server for Omron Hostlink are now available for FREE. The original Omron Hostlink Server and the completely rewritten, much more capable, .NET version.

Servers for the Siemens S5 and Siemens S7 PLCs will be available in the 3rd quarter of 2003.
