Monitor Any Source of Data

OAS supports a large library of Industry 4.0 data sources including Allen Bradley and Siemens PLCs, Modbus and MTConnect devices, OPC UA and DA Servers and Clients, Databases, applications, and more. Once connected, data from any source can be monitored, triggering Alarms for logging, notification, and visualization.


Custom Alarm Behaviors

Alarms can be enabled to monitor both analog and digital signals with fixed, adjustable, and tracking alarm limits. Alarm limits can be defined for high high, high, low, low low, rate of change, and digital alarms. Further customize your alarm conditions with a dead band, and even automate the tracking of alarm conditions to disable or enable them based on time of day or any other value within the system. OPC UA and OPC Alarm and Events can also be a source of alarms along with all OAS IIoT data sources.
