21. SOFT OPC Server Description OMWT SOFT OPC is a data acquisition OLE for Process Control OPC server that acquires data from devices and passes this data using OPC to a client application OMWT SOFT OPC waits for the device to transmit and then processes the transmission Any Windows application that can use OPC can obtain this data from the OMWT SOFT OPCServer Examples of such applications include Wonderware Intouch National Instruments LookOut Capital Equipment Corp TestPoint and general development applications like Microsoft Visual Basic and Borland Delphi OMWT SOFT OPC can be a stand alone data logger When data logging is enabled OMWT SOFT OPC will also store collected data in an ASCII file at a programmable interval Another program such as a spreadsheet or a database manager can import the data See section OMWT SOFT OPC Server Data Logging OMWT SOFT OPC Server and Wireless OMWT SOFT OPC Server OMWT SOFT OPC Server can receive transmissions from wireless devices such as the wireless temperature transmitter Other devices include the wireless humidity sensor and wireless analog input OMWT SOFT OPC uses a wireless receiver such as the OMWT REC232 600 OMWT XREC SER and OMWT RECIP to receive transmissions from wireless sensors OMWT SOFT OPC can also use multiple OMWT RECIP Receivers to receive data through a TCP IP connection When setting up a wireless network OMWT SOFT OPC passively waits for transmission

T SOFT OPC log one record The client can also control the log rate The full path name of the log file is also available to a client application through OPC See the section OPC Server Items for more information For diagnostic purposes OMWT SOFT OPC can log errors that have occurred while waiting and processing data from the sensors This feature is enabled in the INI file Logging LogErrors OMWT SOFT OPC places the errors in a file called OMWT SOFT OPC ERR See the section OMWT SOFT OPC INI Logging for more information OMWT SOFT OPC Server Data Logging e 47 File Management If the log rate is greater than or equal to 5 seconds OMWT SOFT OPC opens and then closes the log file each time data is logged If the log rate is less than 5 seconds OMWT SOFT OPC leaves the file open and closes the file when OMWT SOFT OPC is terminated the log rate is set to zero or the log rate is set to 5 or greater The log file can be viewed while OMWT SOFT OPC is logging The other program must not write to the file lock the file set the file as read only or set the file s sharing parameters so that OMWT SOFT OPC cannot log When processing data with another program the best approach is to either rename the file if the log rate is 5 or greater OMWT SOFT OPC will automatically create a new file on the next log or make a copy of the log file When renaming you may get an access error Just try again The Error log file is opened and then
