Server Settings

In OPC UA Client, the first thing to register is not the OPC UA Server but the Database Server.
You need to decide where collected values will be stored before you can select a table and column in the job form.

Open Server Settings

Open Server Settings from the left sidebar to see the list of registered Database Servers.

Available actions:

  • Add Server
  • Edit
  • Delete
  • Connection Test

Database Server settings screen

Add a New Database Server

In most cases, you enter Machbase Neo connection information here.

Main input fields:

  • Name
  • Host
  • Port
  • Database
  • User
  • Password

Registration steps:

  1. Click Add Server.
  2. Enter the name, host, port, and account information.
  3. Use Load Databases to select an available database, or type its name directly.
  4. If possible, check the connection with Connection Test first.
  5. Click Save.

The OPC UA Client writes collected data, so only a READ_WRITE database can be saved. You can type a database name even if loading the list fails, but Save checks the actual access permission and write mode again.

Edit and Delete

  • Edit
    • Updates the saved connection information.
  • Delete
    • Removes the registered Database Server.

Be careful when deleting a server that is already used by a job, because it can affect future edits or restarts of that job.

Notes

  • The Database Server must work properly for the table and column lists to appear correctly.
  • It is better to prepare the target table structure before creating a job.
