OPCUA Client Option
« on: March 27, 2026, 06:37:44 AM »
Are there any plans to implement OPC-UA client functionalities that will allow a BRX PLC to poll other OPC-UA servers?
If yes, would this require more hardware or is it possible with the existing OPC-UA pom alone?

Cheers!

The POM lacks the necessary resources. We are building a full module which will be significantly more capable that the POM. Not sure what it would take to add client capability but we can look into it.

Cool, as OPC-UA is becoming more and more available, having the ability to pull data from other OPC-UA devices directly into the brx would be great, and would add another use case even as a protocol translator/gateway.
