OPC-Client - Communication
OPC
Data exchange and communication with OPC Server
Client
using the OPC Client
The communication partner OPC Server can be located
on the same PC or on another PC connected with TCP/IP (Ethernet)
The open communication can especially be used for the data exchange with
automation devices e.g. SIMATIC
Example
A Simatic S7-400 is connected to a SICAM PAS Station Unit through a CP1613
and via the Ethernet. The communication used between the S7-400 and the
CP1613 is the S7 protocol. An OPC server for the CP1613 card is available
from SIMATIC. In this way data can be exchanged with the SICAM PAS OPC
Client.

Control Authority
The control authority defines which level (bay, station or SCADA) is
authorized for switchgear operation
In addition to the local / remote setting on the bay device, it is also
possible to switch between local and remote control at the station level
Furthermore, the control authority can also be configured to be channel
specific, e.g. TC2 is authorized for operation and the other TC channels
and the local control is not.
