OPC UA Adapter
OPC UA client with browse, scan, and NodeId addressing.
OPC_UA connects to an opc.tcp:// endpoint and reads NodeIds. Tag browse and scan are supported in the console.
Connection config
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
endpointUrl | Required — e.g. opc.tcp://192.168.1.10:4840 |

Tag addresses (NodeId)
ns=3;s=Counter
ns=2;i=1001
i=2258Browse and scan
- Save device with valid
endpointUrl - Open device → Tags → Browse or Scan
- Import discovered nodes; adjust tag codes and units
- Export CSV / Import CSV for bulk edits
ScanTagExplorer (large servers)
For servers with thousands of nodes, Scan opens a folder tree explorer (similar to an OPC Quick Client):
- Expand OPC folders in a tree; search by node name or browse path
- Select nodes with checkboxes; the pick list paginates so you are not loading the entire address space at once
- Import selected nodes — then refine codes, units, and active flags on the device Tags tab
Use Browse for a shallow preview; use Scan when you need structured multi-select from a deep hierarchy.
