Coloring Conventions
We maintain visual consistency in the product by using specific colors for certain functionality areas. This is typically seen in various icons, images and bitmaps.
Green color is used for OPC Data Access.
Orange color is used for OPC Alarms&Events.
Turquoise color is used for OPC Unified Architecture. Because OPC-UA supports multiple functionalities, the turquoise color is sometimes used in combination with other colors, such as green for Data, or orange for Events.
