30. Click to edit Master title styleOPC UA Connectivity Benefits Utilizing FDT 3.0 DTMs
• Ability to utilize existing DCS/AMS connection to post device data to website of
device portal. Other connections to monitor device data online require a separate
wired or wireless connection. (Note: Not available yet by system provider)
• Reusability of the same FDT 3.0 DTM to establish connection to FDT 3.0 OPC UA
from multiple vendors
• Double Value from a single FDT 3.0 DTM implementation
– Website portal monitorization of device status through FDT 3.0 OPC UA connection
– DTM remote connection to online Server application
• Ability to use the FDT 3.0 DTM in multiple devices (phones, tablets, laptops…)
where the DTM WebUI is responsive to accommodate multiple screen sizes.
