Overview

SIXNET UDR Product Overview

The SIXNET UDR driver exchanges data between OPC clients and SIXNET RTUs using the Native SIDNET protocol. It supports both Serial and Ethernet connections, and also supports the IPM Linux-based RTU. The driver supports a unique pass through feature of the Sixnet protocol that allows you to configure an RTU while continuing to gather data. Kepware automatically optimizes data acquisition based on client demand, and data integrity is ensured with our extensive error handling.
