The RF Code OPC Server for Zone Manager publishes all information from Zone Manager to the OPC Data Access (DA) standard. By integrating Zone Manager with OPC, RF Code’s wire-free sensor tag information and active RFID tag information can flow into various OPC Client based systems such as SCADA applications, building management systems, and industrial controls systems.

The OPC Server for Zone Manager is a stand-alone integration application that installs on a Windows based system.  It can be installed on the same system as Zone Manager or on a remote / different system.  One OPC Server for Zone Manager is required for each Zone Manager system and is accessible by one or more OPC client applications simultaneously.

The OPC Server for Zone Manager makes the following information available to OPC client applications:

• Asset Tag data: Location, online/offline status, battery status, motion status, tamper status
• Sensor Tag data: Location, online/offline status, battery status, sensor information (temperature, humidity, fluid detection, door status, dry contact)
• RF Code Reader data: Status, noise level, event rate, tag capacity utilized, firmware version

All of the above information is updated in real-time so consuming OPC applications are assured to have up to the minute data from the RF Code solution.

RF Code’s OPC Server conforms to the OPC Data Access (DA) specification versions 1.0a, 2.05a, and 3.0.  RF Code has received certification for both version 2.05a and version 3.0 from the OPC Foundation.

More information about OPC and OPC-compatible applications can be found at the OPC Foundation web site.
