OPC Server是一套利用微軟的COM/DCOM技術(shù)實(shí)現(xiàn)工業(yè)自動(dòng)化資料獲取的架構(gòu)。OPC Server提供OPC接口，它將與之相連的物理設(shè)備（PLC）的信息值通過接口返回到客戶端應(yīng)用程序。也就是說，客戶端通過這些接口，可以獲得與OPC Server連接的物理設(shè)備的信息。對(duì)于集成應(yīng)用程序，只要支持OPC接口，就能輕易訪問物理設(shè)備，而無需相關(guān)的技術(shù)信息。 程序設(shè)計(jì)者可以使用相同的程序代碼，操作不同的硬件裝置，充分達(dá)成軟件復(fù)用的目的。

它使用OPC Server引入了簡(jiǎn)單的示例程序。此示例的代碼使用OPC 如果從.NET訪問OPC Server，則需要交換COM和.NET的包裝器。 自動(dòng)化包裝器（OPCDAAUTO.DLL），因此它幾乎等于VB6.0。
