As a major update to the vendor’s line of industrial software products, Ignition provides support for OPC-UA, the next-generation standard for industrial data communication.
Ignition is billed as the first product on the market to fully deliver
on the promise of OPC-UA by being 100% cross platform. “Using OPC-UA, we
expand our connectivity options and allow our customers to use the
platform of their choice. Best of all, we are proud to offer our
end-users the Ignition OPC-UA server and drivers absolutely free,” says
Steve Hechtman, president at the vendor. Ignition continues the vendor’s
philosophy of open, accessible systems that are unhindered by
traditional licensing restrictions. Unlimited tags, screens and
no-install clients deployed using Web-Launch technology mean that
customers can focus on making data available, without being hung up by
cost. The ability to connect to any number of databases and the ability
to open multiple Web-launched design clients at no additional cost
further expand the software’s value. Ignition is fully backwards
compatible with the vendor’s earlier Factory SQL and FactoryPMI
products. New features like the SQL Tags Historian make the software
easier to use and more efficient. Many diverse architectures are
possible, from a stand-alone HMI to large-scale, geographically
distributed installations.Inductive Automationwww.inductiveautomation.com800.266.7798
