OPC Client for ODBC User Manual

The Matrikon OPC Client for ODBC enables any ODBC-compliant database to exchange process data with an OPC Server. This application uses standard SQL queries. There are two main uses for the OPC Client for ODBC:
• Archive process values from an OPC server to an ODBC database. An ODBC database can become a miniature process historian, and this application can place the data in permanent storage. Any trending or analysis tool can then be used to retrieve the data from the ODBC database.
• Populate an OPC Server with data from an ODBC database. For example, gas chromatograph data, stored in a database, can be written into an OPC server by way of this application.

Other features include:
• Support for ODBC compliant databases such as Microsoft Access, Microsoft SQL, Oracle, Sybase, etc.
• Communication between multiple ODBC databases with multiple OPC servers, including concurrent sessions with the same server
• SQL-based query engine that allows both reading and writing
• Real-time editor that allows query changes even while the application is running
• Point-and-click interface supporting drag and drop operation
• Support for transaction-based updates
• Runs as a Windows NT Service
• Supports stored procedures
• XML configuration file
