Hi

I posted this in the wrong forum before, so repost here.

Is it possible to get the arduino to communicate to a OPC server? Or is there another way so that i can get the arduino to communicate to scada software like factory talk (Allen-Bradley)

Thank you

Mark

Thanks for the answer. I think i could get the modbus into the SCADA. I will work and try to find a solution with modbus.

If there is anybody else that have done it some other way feel free to contribuete.

They figured it out on this thread using AdvancedHMI and Modbus:

Hi All,

actually  we are working on the driver to communicate between ARDUINO and our visualization Software VisBee.
It’s a fully loaded Visualization system for HMI and SCADA.

You can download the Software without any restrictions at www.visbee.de (english version)

The is a extra version for ARDUINO - Fans ;-)  (VisBee-light)

The driver will be available during march/april 2013.

If you have further questions let me know.....

Thanks for the posts guys. I will look into it.

Looking forward to the driver VisBee and trying out your software. Could you post it here maybe when it is released?

Sure I will,

our software engineer working on it.

What a shame VisBee only seems to operate on microsoft windows, I hope you are also looking to have it operate on other OS's.

Just like 'Citect SCADA' and the Allen Bradley RSLogix range of software products, they all only operate on windows, and this is the only reason I keep a windows image available in VirtualBox environment. I feel irked by having to keep software like this for work I do in Industrial Automation.

How wonderful it would be if we could have our operating system of choice and be able to use some of these programs.

Chris, a problem with your 'visbee' web site. If go to this page http://www.visbee.de/Christ/Christ-Elektronik/ and then select the English flag at the top of the page for English then all I get is a blank page. There are other pages that do the same, you will need to check to find out which pages do not work.
