Protocol
The IEC103 OPC Server software has two parts: Engineering and diagnostic tools and
the actual IEC103 OPC Server. Engineering and diagnostic tools utilize the Station
Automation Builder 600 (later referred to as SAB600) framework and provide the user
interface for engineering and diagnosing the IEC103 OPC Server. The IEC103 OPC
Server handles the data transfer and conversion between the IEC103 protocol and OPC
interfaces.
