App Notes - OPC UA Analysis

OPC is the standard of choice for interoperability between software and hardware in the multi-vendor real world.  That success has resulted in greater availability of data and has generated greater demand for access to the data across a wider number of locations and users. OPC UA is the latest standard with adoption increasing each year due to the remote connectivity benefits it provides over OPC Classic.

In this series of app notes, you will learn about the low-level OPC UA communication between a custom UA client and an OPC UA server, including detailed analysis of actual OPC UA calls using a free network analysis tool called Wireshark.
