Samples

Reliability

Adjustable connection and transaction timeout parameters provide optimal performance. In the event of a network failure, automated recovery measures are in place to ensure seamless operations. Additionally, a data stream can be defined to ensure reliable

Automated Communications Failover..

Automated Set Up

Tags are automatically created based on the received schema, which includes data types and identifiers, from the Live Data URL.

The system features built-in transaction recording that effectively monitors data transformations from the stream to the data values.

High-Speed Performance

Parallel processing for each data stream provides the fastest data throughput possible. Create unlimited numbers of drivers to monitor each Live Data URL.
Up to 1,000,000 tags per server.

Data Accuracy

Data from each controller is processed on-premise in a first-in, first-out (FIFO) manner. This ensures that all data received from the controller is preserved and not just the latest value. Maintaining complete data accuracy is crucial for all applications that rely on this data.

Common Use Cases

Log MTConnect Data to Databases and CSV Files

Use the OAS Data Historian to log data from MTConnect data streams into various databases, including SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, and others. This logging can be triggered by changes in the data, specific events, or continuously. The system also supports logging high-speed buffered data from a controller. Learn more ..

Transfer MTConnect Data

Transfer MTConnect data to various Industry 4.0 data sources using the Data Route feature.. This data transfer can occur continuously or be triggered by specific events. Additionally, both Basic and Live Data Cloud Networking enhance this feature, allowing for seamless transfer over your local area network (LAN), wide area network (WAN), or the Internet.

MTConnect User Interface

Create Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) for MTConnect data using the cross-platform UIEngine without any coding required. The UIEngine features an extensive library of components that allow for drag-and-drop design, along with integrated support for Web Trend and Web Alarm products.

You can consider options such as WinForm HMI, WPF HMI, and Web HMI, as well as programmatic access through the .NET Data Connector and OAS REST API to seamlessly integrate MTConnect data with your existing legacy applications. Learn more about the UIEngine
