Automate the execution of a versiondog job based on user-defined events, such as tool changes on machines.
OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) is a data exchange standard that enables the transport and semantic description of various types of machine data such as control variables, measurements, and parameters. In versiondog, OPC UA is supported as a client-server architecture where the client communicates with an OPC server. This server cyclically reads the control systems to be secured and provides the values of the trigger variables to the versiondog server.
The diagram shows the environments in which Job Trigger via OPC UA can be used.
