Using OpcCmd Utility as OPC UA Server
For general information about the OpcCmd tool, see Category:OpcCmd Utility.
Commands, Arguments and Options
Command: uaServer
This command creates an OPC UA server with pre-defined content (data variables with various behavior and data types under the standard Objects folder). By default, it will open its endpoint (when started) on "opc.tcp://localhost:48040/".
Command: uaServer start
This command starts the OPC UA server.
While the start command is executing, events related to the edge node operations are displayed on the console.
Sub-commands
By default, the server runs until the you press X on the keyboard. Use the !wait sub-command to specify a finite duration.
Command: uaServer addMesh
This command adds nodes to the OPC UA server address space mesh. You need to specify the mesh name, and optionally a mesh-specific parameter. Currently, only one mesh is available, named PerformanceNodes. The optional parameter is an integer specifying the count of shared counter nodes (defaults to 10000).
The mesh(es) need to be added before you start the server.
Example:
uaServer
addMesh PerformanceNodes 20000
start
