Hey folks,
I had a question come in from a customer that I'm not sure about.
They're trying to view specific tag properties (units, description, scaling) via an OPC client connection. Is there a way to expose the entire tag configuration on the OPC server or a way to access those properties that I'm not aware of?
No, they aren't exposed over OPC UA.
I didn't think so, but them asking for it kind of threw me for a loop thinking that might be an option.
Thanks Kevin
I'm afraid that implementing something like that would just encourage people to subscribe to both every tag and every tag property, and the number of monitored items would go up something like 10-20x (however many tag properties we exposed).
Oh, definitely. It seems the common thought process is "more data is more better", regardless of sense lmao. I'll see if there's a specific set that they want available and maybe I can just create a few reference tags for those properties. Cheers!
