Kepware's Siemens S5 device driver works in conjunction with our OPC Server KEPServerEX, to provide data exchange between OPC Clients and Siemens S5 PLCs using AS511 protocol. The AS511 Protocol allows a direct connection to the programming port of the PLC. The programming port utilizes a Current Loop connection requiring the use of either the supplied programming cable or an external RS-232 to Current Loop converter. The Driver Manual contains a wiring diagram and recommendations for Current Loop converters. KEPServerEX automatically optimizes your data acquisition based on client demand. Data integrity is ensured with our extensive error handling.

KEPServerEX OPC Server

Drivers "Plug-in" to KEPServerEX

The Siemens S5 OPC Server is a plug-in device driver for KEPServerEX. A "Plug-in" is a software program (.dll) that extends the capabilities of KEPServerEX to fit the communication requirements of a specific device or system. The plug-in driver handles all of the proprietary communications between the device/system and the OPC layer, KEPServerEX. The KEPServerEX core then handles all OPC and Proprietary Client communications between the plug-in driver and the Client application. For a complete list of features and capabilities please visit the KEPServerEX overview page.
