OPC UA, OPC DA Driver for communicating to Mitsubishi CNC controllers.
This driver is only available as part of the following TOP Server driver suites:
Channels (255 Devices Each)
Communication Modes (Binary & ASCII)
Ethernet Transport
Real-time CNC data access for machine monitoring
The Mitsubishi CNC Ethernet driver works in conjunction with TOP Server® to provide data exchange between OPC UA, OPC DA, SuiteLink and DDE clients and Mitsubishi C64 CNC Controllers via Ethernet.
This driver supports communication with devices using the MELSEC protocol over Ethernet. Data acquisition is optimized based on upstream client demand while data integrity is ensured using extensive error handling.
