  • Remote Tag Provider

    A remote Tag Provider uses the Gateway Network to grab a Tag Provider from another Gateway on the Gateway Network, allowing you to share Tags between networked Gateways. A remote Tag Provider works like a normal Tag Provider in that you can edit the Tags and read or write to the values. These Tags are shared between Gateways without the need for additional OPC connections, allowing for a more streamlined flow of data. Relevancy Score: 38.728363

  • Remote History Provider

    A remote History Provider uses the Gateway Network to grab a History Provider from another Gateway on the Gateway Network, allowing you to share historical data between connected Gateways. A remote History Provider works like a normal History Provider in that you query history data into trends and charts, as well as store history data to it. The history data is shared between Gateways without the need for additional database connections, allowing for a more streamlined flow of data, and allowing storage of history data at a central location.

  • Remote Alarms

    Remote Alarming allows a Gateway to access the notification profile of another Gateway on the Gateway Network. This allows any Gateway in the network to use the SMS or Voice Notification capabilities of other Gateways. This also allows access to the Alarm Notification Pipelines of other Gateways that they share a Notification Profile with. All of this means the majority of Alarm Notifications can happen at one central location in the network. Relevancy Score: 32.623108
