Supported features

The OPC UA Server supports the following functions:

  • Browsing data types and variables
  • Standard services for reading and writing
  • Notification of value changes (Subscription and Monitored Item Services)
  • No limit on the number of sessions, monitored objects and subscriptions (the number depends on the performance of the respective platform)
  • Support of events
  • Support for full access to structures
  • Encrypted communication with an OPC UA client
  • Support for multitasking
  • Support for OPC UA methods
  • Support for Alarms&Conditions

Supported profiles: The OPC UA server currently supports the “Micro Embedded Device Server Profile”. This server profile allows reading, writing and subscribing to items.

Supported information models: OPC UA allows the definition of different data types. The combination of customer-specific data types, object types and reference types enables the definition of your own information model. An information model describes how the data should be made available to the address space.

Programming system CODESYS Development System V3.5.17.0 or higher
Runtime system CODESYS Control V3.5.17.0 or higher
Supported platforms/devices CODESYS Soft PLC Systems

Note: Use the “Device Reader” tool to determine the functions supported by the controller (free part of the CODESYS Development System).
Additional requirements
  • TCP/IP stack
  • Real-time clock
restrictions –
Licensing Single device license: The license can be used on the controller on which the CODESYS runtime system is installed.

The license is activated on a software-based license container (soft container) that is permanently linked to the controller. Alternatively, the license can be stored on a CODESYS key (USB dongle). The license can be used on another controller by replugging the CODESYS key.

Note: Without a license, the software runs in demo mode for two hours. After that, a manual restart is required.
