RELEASE:
Portland, ME June 28, 2007 -- Portland, Maine;
Kepware Technologies announced today the release
of ClientAce, a powerful suite of developer
tools to OPC-enable .NET applications.
ClientAce is a powerful but easy to use .NET control and a full .NET API. ClientAce
enables automation engineers to easily incorporate
OPC client capabilities in their VB.NET or
C# applications. ClientAce has been tested
extensively with Kepware's OPC server suite
KEPServerEX and also contains custom controls
to provide access to Channel Settings and
Server State Control of KEPServerEX applications.
Kepware's ClientAce feature highlights include:
• Developer license with royalty-free runtimes
• Requires no detailed knowledge of OPC Data Access interfaces
• Fast and simple browsing for both local and remote OPC servers
• Connection handling to OPC servers including reconnection in the event of errors
• High performance & optimized Client-Server communication via kernel functionality
OPC toolkits are a proven way to greatly reduce the
time required in developing and maintaining custom
software applications. Use of a reputable OPC toolkit
allows OEMs, integrators and end users
to focus on process or overall application needs without
the need to become OPC experts. After extensive research,
Rush Tracking Systems
chose ClientAce as the standard way to add OPC client
capabilities to their RFID applications. According
to George Rothwell, CTO of Rush
Tracking, "We architect solutions based on open standards
as a way to deliver maximum value to our customers.
In a recent RFID application
we required a reliable method of connecting an application
developed in .NET with an OPC server. The use of Kepware's
ClientAce has increased
reliability, reduced time to delivery and added flexibility
for our RFID solutions."
The ClientAce install includes a
free Sample Server to assist users with
application development. Please visit Kepware's website

OPC-enabled software products including ClientAce.
