Software Toolbox OmniServer

OmniServer is a powerful program you can configure to communicate with various devices that do not already have drivers written for them. It can provide the resulting data to OPC UA and OPC DA Clients, as well as, Wonderware Suitelink Clients and DDE Clients or other applications such as databases via Client Wedges.

                   

OmniServer is a fully configurable I/O server which interprets the data coming in from a device and delivers the data to any client program that supports the major information exchanges. OmniServer comes in three editions: Professional, Server and Wedge

                                                                                         

                                                                      Professional Edition                                         Server Edition                                         Wedge Edition

OmniServer takes care of all the polling and data parsing for you, and does this without the use of a programming language. All you need to know is how you want to present the data to the outside world.

The Works With section is a central reference section for the technical specifications of OmniServer such as Operating System Support and Client Interfaces.

The Concepts behind OmniServer will give you an overview of what OmniServer is, how it works, and how it can help you reduce the time and costs associated with writing custom drivers.

OmniServer Connectivity shows you the different type of devices and clients for which OmniServer can communicate. Look here to discover if your application and/or device can use OmniServer to solve your communication needs.

Testing with OmniServer is our final section that gives you an overview of how to test your protocol and installation using the OmniServer diagnostic tools. These integrated tools provide an easy yet powerful means to trouble shoot your protocol.
