November 28, 2011 - The U.C.ME-OPC version 2012 now has an integrated built-in alarm expression builder and calculator that reduce the time for the alarm definition/maintenance and also helps to avoid false and nuisance alarms. Other features include:

Remote control
Innovative capability enables flexible two-way communication via multiple channels such as SMS or phone, ensuring that alerts are promptly addressed. The remote control also provides the capability of changing set-points, query field values, suspending or resuming alarm notifications and more.

Sophisticated escalation procedure
U.C.ME-OPC employs an escalation procedure that can be customized to ensure that alerts are delivered to alternative recipients. Remote alarm acknowledgement prevents unnecessary repeat alarm notifications – reducing nuisance alarms and reducing costs.

Detailed, real-time alarm analysis
U.C.ME-OPC analyzes the critical parameter data of an alarm, compares the values with the desired range, and marks the parameters that don’t comply. This real-time information is sent directly to a cell phone, pager or email and is also stored in a database for offline analysis.

Multiple OPC-server connectivity
U.C.ME-OPC communicates with multiple OPC servers and with industrial automation software (SCADA) via OPC or DDE. U.C.ME-OPC will automatically reconnect after a power outage or after an OPC server software has stopped.

Easy alarm import from your SCADA
U.C.ME-OPC allows for alarm import from a SCADA with one click of a button.

Runs as a Microsoft Windows service
The service operates before the user has logged in and continues to operate after the user has logged off. If the service fails, recovery actions can be set up, such as restarting the service automatically or restarting the computer.

U.C.ME-OPC’s cutting-edge functionality makes it the ideal control solution for building management, oil and gas works, power stations, water works and sewage treatment plants, factories and production lines, fire detection control systems, healthcare, food and pharmaceuticals (including FDA 21 CFR Part 11 compliance), and more.
