Description of the peripheric server

procedurePeriphericServer (Document written by Daniele LAUGIER)

Conversion xlsx to csv

WIth libreoffice configured with language english !!!! To have dot as decimal converter

libreoffice --headless --convert-to "csv:Text - txt - csv (StarCalc):44,,UNICODE,1,1" "ADC_constants_10.xlsx"

How to compile

Now the peripheral use CI, but if you want to compile by "hand":

source setup.sh
./quasar.py enable_module open62541-compat
./quasar.py set_build_config open62541_config.cmake
./quasar.py prepare_build
./quasar.py build

Design

See the design.xml files on the packages artifacts

Access with WinCCOA

Link to the gitlab of the WinCCOA project peripheral_server branch

With WinCCOA it's impossible to call directly a method. To passthrough this issue the peripheral server implement register to call the methods.

• For each method there is registers (method_parameter) with the needed parameter of the method
• A boolean register to call the method (callMethod)
• Registers with the output of the method (method_output)
• Register with the value of the error code (method_error)

Now only 3 error code are implemented:

• 0- METHOD_NOT_CALLED
• 1- METHOD_IN_PROGRESS
• 2- METHOD_GOOD
• 3- METHOD_BAD

Development tools

For the development of the peripheral server many tools are needed

Trainings for the development of peripheric servers have been provided by Piotr Nikiel Link to training

Other informations

librairy 62541

The quasar tool can use two different librairy for OpcUa: the open source 62541 and the OpcUa develloped by unified automation. Because the license for unified automation is linked to a developer we can't use this library for development, so we will use the open source. But this open source don't have all the functions implemented (can't have source variable or asynchronous method) and they will be useful for production version of OpcUaLtdbPeripheralServer. So for the production version the compilation will be done by Piotr Nikiel who have a valid license.
