Popis: OPC specifications have considerably contributed to the uniformization and standardization procedures for the software applications gathering process data and exchanging it in a unitary manner. However, this specification does not provide instructions or guidelines on how to achieve the interconnection with field devices. The present article proposes a standardization solution in field networks, which will enable users to gain access to a server with a communication component and several network drivers. Consequently, all engineering aspects related to implementation will be given a uniform interpretation. We will get a uniform engineering of distributed control systems.
