OPC Router is a software program that allows you to connect data from various industrial devices and IT/OT systems to each other. All this quickly, automatically and without programming knowledge. In addition, you can see all data flows in a clear visualization.  

Collect data, connect systems, perform calculations, compare values and enter results into databases. You can do all this with OPC Router for PLC systems, OPC servers, printers, RFID readers, emails, Excel spreadsheets, databases, cloud systems, MQTT brokers, ERP systems SAP R3, SAP HANA, etc. For installation on a single computer you need a basic module and one or more plug-in modules.

ERP/SOAP Web Services Plug-In

A web service enables communication between systems on the basis of the HTTP and HTTPS web protocols. Each and every web service has its own unique address (URL) and is described by means of its very own descriptive data file (WSDL = Web Services Description Language).

With OPC Router's ERP/SOAP Web Services plug-in, you can exchange data between ERP/SOAP web services and systems connected to your OPC Router through its plug-in modules. In other words, the plug-in allows you to graphically link your systems to any WSDL ERP/SOAP Web Service and perform read and write operations.

Connecting ERP systems to databases via ERP/SOAP web services

Most ERP systems have web services. A web service's interface does not only allow you to read data from an ERP system, but also to write it to it. The OPC Router supports ERP/SOAP web services as well as various types of databases (e.g. MSSQL, Oracle, MySQL, Access and ODBC). This means that you can easily connect web services to your type of database and exchange data between these systems.

 

SOAP web service integration – an example

In the picture below, you can see OPC Router's ERP/SOAP plug-in deployed. Using this plug-in, we have connected to a web service that allows you to find cities with a specific prefix (1). When a prefix has been inputted, the web service returns a string with cities.

With the time trigger (2) in place, a connection gets triggered and the selected function (3) is called, using the input parameter (4). A return value is rendered and sent to the OPC Router's variable (5).

In the top of the picture, you can see the live graph (6), which allows for the monitoring and diagnostics of the connection. Each green dot on the line means that the trigger has been activated and that the connection is fault-free.

 

System requirements


Computer performance

OPC Router is a server application and needs to run on suitably equipped hardware. We recommend using at least the following components:

  • Multi-core processor,
  • at least 4 GB RAM,
  • hard disk space (with RAID 5 technology).

Operating system


We recommend using Microsoft Windows Server operating systems (see below). Client operating systems (64-bit) can also be used for testing purposes.

  • Windows Server 2008 x64
  • Windows Server 2008 R2 x64
  • Windows Server 2012 x64
  • Windows Server 2012 R2 x64
  • Windows Server 2016 x64
  • Windows Server 2019 x64
  • Windows 7 x64
  • Windows 8 x64
  • Windows 8.1 x64
  • Windows 10 x64
  • Windows 10 IoT x64

Available OPC servers

OPC servers in OPC Router are used to connect control systems and other devices over OPC UA, OPC DA 4.0, or OPC XML.
To connect an OPC server, you must purchase a Module OPC license.


Available database servers


Database servers must be installed separately and are not part of the OPC Router installation. The OPC Router supports the following database systems:

  • MS SQL
  • Oracle
  • MySQL
  • MS Access
  • XMLdatabases accessible by ODBC

Plug-ins for connecting database systems are not part of the Basic license, but you need to purchase the appropriate plug-in separately.

SAP-Plug in

The SAP Plug-in supports SAP systems version 4.0b and higher. For functionality, you need to have the so-called
SAP Log-on pad installed on the server where the OPC Router is running.
The SAP Plug-in is licensed and is not part of the Basic license.
