OPC Factory Server Software

Uses the OPC (OLE for Process Control) standard which allows data processing applications known as “Clients” to access data in Schneider Electric PLCs

Mastering communication to increase productivity

OPC Factory Server™ software (OFS™) allows access to real-time PLC data. OFS is a multi-PLC data server, enabling several communication protocols to be used with client application programs and a set of services to access control system variables.

OFS software offers communication with most Schneider Electric PLCs, including the new Unity™-platform Quantum™ and Premium™ PLCs, automatically importing objects from the Unity Pro™ software application. Additionally, OFS software communicates with some legacy PLCs.
