03 May 2005 - Data Layers products validated to OPC Foundation's specifications
Data Layers were invited by the OPC Foundation to participate at the Interoperability Workshop 2005, at Tampa, FL, USA. As the only company from Ireland or the UK in attendance, Data Layer's products flew the flag well with no interoperability issues outstanding at the end of the week.

The goal of this workshop, taking place from April 25th to 29th, was to offer an oportunity for the 27 participating companies to test their system´s compatibility with one another, and check their functionality when interoperating. The interoperability of all interfaces and functions stipulated by OPC Foundation specifications was validated, as well as optional interfaces, whenever possible.

"This event is crucial for the ongoing development of our products incorporating OPC standards. In this workshop we validated OPCWare Client Developer, OPCWare HDA Client Developer, OPCWare XL DA and OPCWare XL HDA for all interoperability tests", says Neil Kingston, Data Layers´s Founder and Chief Executive Officer.

The event consisted of consecutive, one-hour long test sessions, during which several client/server combinations were tested. Concurrently, all test results were documented, in an effort to improve the OPC Foundation's protocol specifications.

Other participating companies included Iconics, ABB, Siemens, Rockwell, Invensys (Wonderware & AIM), Kepware, InGear, Emerson (DeltaV), Software Toolbox, OSISoft (PI), Yokogawa, Honeywell, Matrikon, Woodhead, Cyberlogic, Canary Labs.
