Expanded Device Connectivity for your HMI or SCADA Applications

The widest variety of device connectivity for HMI and SCADA integration

The most common use for TOP Server is with HMI/SCADA software packages to provide read/write access to process and production data. Having multiple HMI/SCADA software products in a single facility is quite common, and system integrators often must be skilled in multiple products. Therefore, it is important the communications software you choose work with as many software applications as possible.

Standards-based client interfaces support the widest range of HMIs and SCADAs

TOP Server meets this requirement because it supports the OPC Classic Data Access (DA) standard versions 1, 2, and 3 as well as OPC Unified Architecture (UA – DA Profile), OPC Classic Alarms & Events (OPC A&E) and OPC .NET 3.0 (DA and AE Profiles). In addition to the OPC standards, TOP Server provides these Windows and HMI/SCADA-specific interfaces, insuring you’ll have a way to connect to the TOP Server.

  • DDE – Dynamic Data Exchange
  • AdvancedDDE
  • FastDDE
  • Suitelink
  • iFix PDB/NIO

Can my HMI or SCADA connect to TOP Server?

If your HMI/SCADA package is one of the large number that support one of the OPC standards as a client, then you’ll be able to connect to TOP Server. Our OPC Certifications and OPC Interoperability testing, combined with our flexible OPC settings insure that TOP Server works well with your software.
