Description

Have you ever started to do online research on OPC UA and just gotten lost with the complexity of it?

Or maybe you went straight to the source, the OPC Foundation's website, and downloaded the specification only to realize that, when printed, it was over 1000 pages long?!!!

Well I have good news for you .. you actually don't have to know most of the details of OPC UA to install and configure OPC UA Client and Server software, which is what you need to do to get the factory up and running right?

That's what this course is about. Practical OPC UA!

In this course, you will learn the theory that you can directly apply to the real world of working with OPC UA Client and Server software. You will then be guided on how to download, install, configure and troubleshoot FREE OPC UA Client and Server software applications. That's right, in this course you are actually going to get "hands-on" training in the various aspects of OPC UA software applications.

This course is just over two hours, and at the end of it, you are not only going to know the theory behind the main aspects of OPC UA, but you will be able to immediately hit the ground running to be able to use any OPC UA software application in the field.
