RadioLinx OPC Server
PSW-RLX-OPC
The RadioLinx OPC Server seamlessly links customer
applications to RadioLinx radios. Any application that can act
as an OPC Client, such as an HMI, can interact with any type
of RadioLinx radio. It allows the applications to get signal
strength, serial number and throughput information, as well as
other useful statistics.

RadioLinx OPC Server
PSW-RLX-OPC

With Windows XP, the RadioLinx OPC Server runs as a
service. If using Windows NT, the OPC Server runs in the
background. It independently manages all requests from OPC
Clients for information on RadioLinx radios. The OPC Clients
are typically HMI programs, but can also be easily monitored
by Microsoft Excel. The clients can be programs running either
on the same PC as the OPC Server or on a separate PC
connected via a network connection.

The RadioLinx OPC Server manages the requests for
information about the radios and queries the radios
appropriately to provide the needed information to the clients.
For example, several HMIs may request signal strength of a
single radio. These requests will be sent to the RadioLinx OPC
Server. The RadioLinx OPC Server will query that radio once
and reply back to all of the HMIs with the information they
requested. The rate at which the RadioLinx OPC Server will
query the radios on the network will be determined by the rates
that the individual HMIs request updates.
