This article is related to OPC used with the ICX-AlphaCom platform.
Communication between the OPC server and ICX-AlphaCom
ICX-AlphaCom has 2 communication ports available for API/OPC based software, ports 61112 and 61113. These 2 ports are independent.
The number of simultaneous connections that can be made to these ports depends on the AlphaCom or ICX-AlphaCom software version.
- As from ICX-AlphaCom 1.1.3.0 the TCP-server has been re-implemented; until then an API/OPC port on an ICX-AlphaCom only supported 1 connection, if more connections were required it was possible to use similar ports on other exchanges as described in the bullets below; Now the total number of connections in an AlphaNet has the limitation as below, where it is possible to use a single port on a single server to provide those connections (all servers must have the same software version):
- 120 API connections
- 30 OPC server connections
- As from AMC-IP software version 12.3.3.2 and ICX-AlphaCom 1.0.3.0 it is possible to use up to 10 ports (61112/61113), divided over at least 5 exchanges. Ports 61112 and 61113 only accept a single connection.
- All earlier software only allows 2 simultaneous connections, 1 to port 61112 and 1 to port 61113. In an AlphaNet, once a port is used on one AlphaCom server that same port number is blocked on the other servers
Screenshots from the Configurator tool
Under the “Main Config” tab the AlphaCom IP address, the AlphaCom node list and optional Master stations are programmed.
For each of the AlphaCom event types the OPC Event parameters and message text can be configured.
The 'About' tab shows some links where to get further information of used components
