OPC UA Server Data Group Configuration: Auto-Configure
While in either of the two Auto-Configure Modes, the # of Data Groups and the actual Data Groups
themselves cannot be edited. Auto-Configure Mode looks at the other protocol and then configures the
data groups to match. The data formats will be defined after the other protocol is configured.
Within the OPC UA server, the data will automatically be configured according to the following rules.
1)
Only the “Regular” Node Types are Auto Configured, does not apply to Array N
ode Types.
2)
Any Bool/Coil/Input Status will be mapped as
Boolean
.
3)
Any 8 Bit/16 Bit/32 Bit/64 Bit Signed Data will be mapped as
64-Bit Int
.
4)
Any 8 Bit/16 Bit/32 Bit/64 Bit Unsigned Data will be mapped as
64-Bit Uint
.
5)
Any 32/64 Bit Float will be mapped as
64-Bit Float
.
6)
The Input or Output Data Group direction depends on whether it is configured as a read or write on
the other protocol.
7)
If the other protocol exceeds the number of Node Types (200 per Node Type), then nothing will be
mapped. You will see the # of Nodes column remain at 0 and the Main Page will display the
following error:
a)
To fix this error, simply decrease the amount of data you configured on the other protocol so
that the max number of OPC UA nodes does not exceed 200 nodes per node type or call
customer support to increase the limits for a custom solution.
To add additional or edit existing data groups you will need to go into Manual Configure Mode.
If you go
back to Auto-Configure Mode, you will lose
ALL
manual edits
.
