Hi,

 

There is requirement, that in a particular condition a Tag's value in the Kepserver has to be changed.

I can detect that particular condition externally (though nodejs service), now how do I access this Kepserver tag from my nodejs service.

Is there any API that Kepserver provides to connect to its device tags and alter.

Please suggest.

 

Regards,

Sri1

Greetings,

 

KEPServer has the ability to enable our Config API to make changes to channel/device/tag properties, but not the tag values. You would need to use some sort of client application to make those changes, Kepware does not have a client that is provided apart from the OPC Quick client, which is just a test tool
