EDMONTON, AB - June 4, 2007 - MatrikonOPC released the MatrikonOPC™ Server for Motorola MOSCAD. This MatrikonOPC Server provides real-time data access to the Motorola family of MOSCAD Remote Terminal Units (RTUs).

The OPC server connects through Motorola's MCP-T SCADA gateway to provide true OPC connectivity to a range of solutions, including small remote telemetry applications, large scale SCADA systems in industries such as rail infrastructure, oil and gas, mining and power and water utilities.

This innovative feature gives users the freedom to create large solutions without worrying about extra overhead costs. Other features unique to Matrikon’s product include support for device timestamps and built-in support for redundancy.

The MatrikonOPC Server for Motorola MOSCAD boasts these innovative features:
  • The ability to poll field RTUs using COS events from its tables
  • Support for multiple concurrent gateway connections
  • Configurable polling schedules for RTU data points
  • Receives events by contention
  • Adjusts RTU clocks
  • Choice of receiving timestamps from device
  • Full device-level redundancy
  • Configurable gateway modes (primary/standby)
  • Retrieves gateway status
  • Retrieves RTU links status

    As with all MatrikonOPC products, this OPC Server enables users to easily manipulate their field data with any number of vendor-neutral, off-the-shelf OPC client applications such as data calculation platforms, trenders, historians, and other reporting tools.
