Introduction
PLCs generate vast amounts of data related to processes, production, and diagnostics. Gateway facilitates the transfer of this data to OPC UA-based systems, such as SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) or MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems). By converting the PLC data into OPC UA, it becomes easier to collect, analyze, and utilize the information for real-time monitoring, control, and decision-making purposes.
 
Technology evolves rapidly, and new standards and protocols emerge over time. By using an OPC UA gateway, organizations future-proof their automation infrastructure. If there are updates or changes in the PLC protocols or if new devices with different protocols are introduced, the gateway can adapt and continue to facilitate reliable communication between the PLCs and the rest of the system.

 
Product Description
BL121PO PLC protocol to OPC UA gateway can support various PLC protocols, including those used by Siemens, Mitsubishi, Omron, Delta, and other PLC brands. BL121PO can support other PLC protocols used by various manufacturers. It acts as protocol translators, enabling the seamless exchange of data between different PLCs and OPC UA-based systems, regardless of the specific protocols involved.
 
By converting PLC data into the OPC UA protocol, it becomes possible to monitor and control PLCs remotely using OPC UA-based systems. This allows for greater flexibility and efficiency in industrial automation. BL121PO conversion offers significant advantages for industrial automation, including increased flexibility, interoperability, security, and scalability.
