TransSECS OPC Server

TransSECS OPC Server for SECS/HSMS protocols

TransSECS/OPC provides a SECS/GEM interface as an OPC-UA server (or a legacy OPC COM server), easily adding SECS/GEM to standard factory automation products such as Wonderware/Intouch, Intellution, Indusoft, and many more. The OPCUA TransSECS server is a standalone product, with no third-party software, that you can run on Windows, Linux, or other platforms, including IoT, such as the Raspberry Pi. (The legacy OPC-DA is limited to Windows platforms.)

Then, just startYou define your VIDs (values that you make available to the host), ALID (alarms) and CEID in the TransSECS editor. CEIDs are events that occur in the tool and that could be of interest to the host. At a minimum, this should include events that are important to the integrity of the batch (batch start, batch completion, batch pause/stop, recipe change, etc.). Your automation software should keep the values up to date and set a tag when an alarm or event occurs. You can also add messages for host control (start, stop, etc.) and for recipe management if needed. The values of the message and the notification indicating that the message has been received will be placed in OPC tags. TransSECS also generates documentation and includes a "boilerplate" manual so you can easily provide accurate documentation to the end user.

Then, just start the server:

Once done, you can then deploy it to a variety of platforms, including Windows, Linux, and others. Let us suggest our hugely popular Raspberry Pi solution or an industrial version like the Revolution PI RevPI.
