The KineticaRT .NET OPC Client component provides objects, which communicate with any OPC DA Server and allow values to be transmitted and received in real-time. The client can be used with very little configuration and can be controlled by KineticaRT UI Controls e.g. the Knob, or monitored by KineticaRT HMI Controls e.g. the Dial. Features include real-time multi-threaded connection with no application software required and supports update rates up to 100Hz. It is a member of a family of related components called KineticaRT, which can be used separately or in unison to build control and monitoring applications.
