MatrikonOPC Data Manger (ODM) is an industrial strength OPC Client based on MatrikonOPC trusted technology. Users will employ MatrikonOPC Data Manager in architectures where they need to share data between two or more control system (i.e. a PLC and a DCS).

Two OPC servers can't exchange data, as they are designed to respond to a client's requests and are unable to generate requests. MatrikonOPC's ODM solves this problem by acting as a 'double-headed' or 'thin' OPC client to both servers. It requests data from one server and immediately sends it to the other OPC server.

No more need for custom code with this easy to install off-the-shelf OPC Client.

The city of Colorado Springs needed a unified operator interface that would help manage all of the components of their traffic control system, including Dynamic Message Signs (DMS), traffic signals, speed sensors, video monitors, remote data collectors, plus many other devices and applications. OPC provided the connectivity, and greatly simplified a very complex project.



Automation professionals are frequently faced with a variety of connectivity challenges. Work with industry peers and OPC experts to learn how to take full advantage of OPC technology.
