U-7500 Series OPC UA I/O Module Release New Function

Product Update 2022-02-21
 

Two New Functions of OPC UA I/O:

  • Support Schedule Function: Provide Schedule Function to Execute the Set Rules at a Specific Time
  • Support RESTful API HTTPS: Read/Write I/O and Virtual Point via HTTPS
 

UA I/O Introductions:

OPC UA I/O modules, also called UA I/O or U-7500 Series, is a series of Ethernet I/O modules that built-in with the OPC UA Server and MQTT Client services. In industrial communication, UA I/O provides OPC UA Server, MQTT Client and RESTful API protocols (can execute all communications at the same time.). Users can choose the networking mode according to their cases. And to transmit the values of the built-in I/O channels to the Cloud IT system or field control system for reading and writing. Support Scaling that let the analog signal be converted into a more readable value. Support logic function rule setting IF, THEN, ELSE, can set up logical condition/action for I/O and virtual point; Provide schedule function to execute the set rules at a specific time; and support RESTful API function, can read/write I/O and virtual point through HTTP or HTTPS.

UA I/O Series provides a Web-based User Interface (Web UI) to configure the module, control the output channels, monitor the connection, and I/O status via a general web browser. It is easy, fast, and no extra APP needed.


 

New Function Introductions:

The new version mainly has two new functions: Schedule and RESTful API HTTPS.
  • Schedule:
    Users can add the "Schedule" function to the existing IF-THEN-ELSE logic setting rules. To execute the rules at a specific cycle time and set the execution time range (year /month /day /hour /minute /second). For more, set an exclusion date not to execute the rule.
  • RESTful API HTTPS:
    The previous version of the RESTful API function provides HTTP read and write I/O and software points. The new version, add with the more secure HTTPS authentication and communication encryption functions, can upload certificates and private keys, which improves information security.
