Allen-Bradley ControlLogix Unsolicited OPC Server
Support & Maintenance out of Warranty/Expired - $447.50
The Allen-Bradley ControlLogix Unsolicited driver for KEPServerEX acts as a simulated Allen-Bradley ControlLogix PLC allowing unsolicited communications between KEPServerEX and Allen-Bradley Logix devices, eliminating unnecessary PLC "Read" communications. The driver supports the CIP Data Table Read and Write Messages from the Logix family of controllers. The ControlLogix Unsolicited driver will only transfer data when being read or written to by a Logix master. The data acquisition is automatically optimized by KEPServerEX based on the master demands.
The Allen-Bradley Unsolicited Ethernet OPC Driver is also included in the Manufacturing Suite.

Drivers "Plug In" to KEPServerEX
The Allen-Bradley ControlLogix Unsolicited 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.
